that's a day you won't forget going that fast on the beach. You're ahead of me now and I have the best location in the world.

....A little 2m kite can can make great speed.... greater than the wind itself. :o

Paul would have gone faster if:

* He had inflated his tires a little more.
* He wasn't on his cell phone saying,".... I'm over 50mph and climbing...Uhmmm...let me put down this phone so I can work my kite better...crap! I'm running out of beach..call you later!".
* He didn't slow down a little to wave to cute beach walker gal.
* His Santa hat hadn't got wrapped around one of the wheels.
* Elmo had worn his aerodynamic skin suit while on fork lookout.
* He wasn't riding backwards when he did this speed (showoff!).
* He had inflated his tires with helium.
* He wasn't riding over clam shells, dead crabs, and metal detector dig holes.
* He had smeared his face and buggy with Petroleum Jelly.
* He hadn't slowed down to sell a couple'Me and Elmo did 62.3mph at NABX ' T-shirts.

Go Paul!- Dale Earnhardt Jr's distant 10th cousin's friend's uncle's caterer's mechanic's son's teacher's RACING BROTHER!
