You're from PA and don't know what a brodie is?

I grew up outside Pittsburgh across the line in Ohio. Brodie is the maneuver of going over a hill (with the Heat on your tail), flip the car around in a 180 and pop back over the hill going the other direction, meeting the nice officer as he screams by you with lights and siren going.

Set the front brakes up tight and the back ones loose so you can hammer the brakes while flooring the accel pedal and whipsawing the steering wheel to accomplish the 180.

Came from the Revenu-er days so the guys running shine could get away.

There are quite a few buckeyes rolling around here.

I've been away from OH for 25 years except to visit family, but lived on the Mahoning/Columbiana county line, rural Columbus and Dover/New Phila areas. Lots of hills and winding roads where brodies work, but some places I've lived - like northern Indiana - you can't get out of the line of sight.

Steering wheel *****

16.15 (1) A steering wheel **** is not permitted on mobile equipment if road wheel reaction forces to the steering wheel are hazardous to the operator.

(2) A steering wheel **** must be a low profile or mushroom type, and lie completely within the periphery of the steering wheel.

This is California Occupational Health and safety regulation.

Julie we need a close up of that ****...... I got mine @ my father in law farm in south east(Canton) South Dakota, he had a box of them but none with pictures in them.....I think they were used on the old JD popper tractors....no power steering on some of the old ones, and when they got new tractors the dutch in him made him save all the brodie ***** in a box in the old tool shed. and I grabbed the only one that turns down !

You Animals! It's decent (and it was actually hard finding one that was g-rated!) - yeah and it's a picture of me on my blow up sea serpent! That's it! Finally!

I'm a big fan of Pin-up art (like my avatar). My grandfather used to fly B-24s and used to collect pictures of the bomber nose art. Very Cool!
