    Arms down tucked against my side. Arms up at that height is asking for trouble imo.

    I went jumping with this chick 6 months back and she broke two lumbar vertebrae at 45-50ft, hit the water on her ass. Anything above 20 ft can do some damage if you don't land right.

    Definitely a poor man's excuse for not modding an IMPORTANT WEAK link in these engines on boost.

    I'm sure someone will come along at note,
    "If you don't have any stories about broken parts, you car probably ain't fast"

    or

    "My car made 700+ whp on stock rods" ... four (4) times.
