and that was a small typhoon.. I've been through some of the biggest, including one with over 185 mph sustained wind. I can't find a vid, but there's a vid of a big rig being shot over a mile with the trailer.

Yeeeep, just shit myself.

I said this in nspec's Viper thread, but Vipers are one of the most badass cars out there. There are better looking, faster, more expensive, more luxurious, etc. cars out there but badassery is highly underrated.

Ive never had the opportunity to drive a Viper, but any car that wants to kill you is one badass ride.
