I figured I just needed to find the right spot. I could not believe how easy it maintained the wheelie once up. Scared the $hit out of me to be honest as I didn't expect it.

As Enemy has once said... "some Doug Heim RC51 wheelie action" Wooohhh... Well there it is.

I had tons of footage lost from my camera mishap. Ill be buying 2 cameras so that way I can run them at the same time and have them in each others shot. This way if I lose one I can refer to the video to narrow the search. Along with a teather and an orange flag I think that will be redundant enough.

Can you pull a wheelie from a standing stop or slow roll? Or do you need a bump to get the front up?

needs a bump  ;D and Im not ashamed to say it

I get a kick out of people telling me how cool it is when you see these rear engine buggies pulling wheelies all over the place. I was approached by alot of people who just in small talk would mention this. I may have seemd a little arrogant as I just shrugged my shoulders and told them that anyone can wheelie a teeter totter. Hell I even said that same thing to buggie's owners. For the most part they did agree.  ;D . I didnt mean to come off as a smart @ss. Just speaking the truth really  :P

Here are some more shots taken of the damage to the other Cuda at the dunes. These show the extent of the twisted lower arm better than my pics...

loyalty to the American people."
