    What this needs is a giant clown standing by the dirt pile holding a big flaming hoop.

    Beginner's luck.

    Oodles sure asks a lot of pesky questions. The obvious answer is: She was going for distance, she was going for speed.

    I normally ollie the cylinder, grind the rail, and then hit the jump for a 360 nose grab. Going the other way is much trickier and hard to land more than 25% of the time.

    @alexander_the_car_salamander: First of all, that's prejudiced. Second of all, going german is the new-ish way to front that your family is doing better than the regular Camry/Accord drivers. Most choose 3's, but there's the occasional Audi or VW.

    @mr_dude: My friend, you are slightly wrong. The new way for Asian women to show they are doing better than Accord/Camry drivers is to buy Lexus/Acura, because they are completely different cars from the former.

    @mr_dude: My Asian parents drive a Subaru Legacy, what does that say about them? (Then again, I picked it for them.)

    @bzr: Lucky you didn't get them an Outback! Or is it the Forester that's the lesbianmobile?


    Subaru is an outlier. The only Jap-lux car I've seen the spoiled ones drive is the Lexus SUV. Other than that, I only see german cars. But I can only speak for socal stereotypes.

    Are we sure it was some Asian woman? It strikes me as the sort of thing that some mildly intoxicated teenagers in a parent's car would do if they didn't see the concrete wall.

    @FP - pass the stars, please: I see the top of an asian's head. It might be a woman, it might be a man with long hair, like me.

    She forgot to hit the double arrow speed burst, that would have helped her clear that and get the 100pt bonus.

    Looks like an outtake from "Die Herzöge von Hazzard" or "Die A-Mannschaft"
