I saw a thing on Digg before where someone wrapped one of those around a pole or tree or something...

I can see how that thing could get wrapped around a tree easily, it is scary fast for a "stock" vehicle 436hp and you can either go auto tranny or shift from the steering wheel with your thumbs... you can control the "ride" to sport or touring and it has a bunch of other gee whizz stuff to go with it.... fo sho someting to get the heart pumping and it sounds awesome. I wish I had gotten some vid of the thing so I could play what it sounded like.. it sounds fast....

Is it going to effect your mobility when it is all healed?

I am sure that there will be some limitations but not sure exactly what - I am rehabbing real hard with hopes that I get everything back - once the bones heal up and I get a full release I plan on getting back into martial arts and work on stretching and strengthening my core, it is a good time to get my kids into it anyway. What I am worried most about is the weakness in my right leg... it just doesn't work right, I can't step up onto a curb... I can do it just fine with the left leg. There is nerve damage and the doc said that it may come back but nerves heal at about a centimeter a month... so it may be months before I know anything. Either way I will learn to live with it. There are folks that are going through much worse stuff than this - our troops.... I spent time on the burn ward at Brooks Army Medical Center and the pain that I feel is a joke.... they are my motivation!!!

DO IT!! But you better reserve it fast or there will be none left - and get the one with the heads up display..... you will not be disappointed.

Thanks for the comments guys, looking forward to getting back into it again real soon!
