turbo or skydiving?

napoleonpp · January 31st, 2012, 06:10 PM

I know its a random question but which would you prefer. Buy a turbo for your car or get certified to skydive? My wife and i did a tandom jump about a year ago and loved it. I want a turbo so bad but it would be so cool to be certified

I went skydiving in 2004 and it was the single biggest thrill of my life, but it sounds like you've already done it so you know that.

To add massive amounts of power to the mustang would be the better gift to yourself in the long run. Hell, you can just skydive later in the year, right?

Add the power and keep the smile on your face for a lot longer...

jbenevides89 · January 31st, 2012, 06:38 PM

do them both. turbo first because the wife will want to do the skydiving even after the turbo is on. if you do the skydiving you may miss out on the turbo. thats being selfish...but we all know how women can be when it comes to spending large sums of money at once for fun on a car.

1st jump is awesome.. 2nd jump is fun.. 3rd your getting used to it an all after that aren't worth the prep involved (I have over 30 jumps). Get a Turbo. And you can always jump a few more times later on if you feel you're missing something.

I say turbo...
Then save and get certified. The turbo will last longer than the sky diving thrill.

pffft....turb!

I hate heights. So I say Turbo. You can drive your car every day but you cannot go skydiving everyday. So I would say you would get more enjoyment from a turbo on your car.

Skydiving!

I only say that because I am doing it in the summer. It's only 20 minutes from college and I can get this.

mikeyfitz · January 31st, 2012, 10:39 PM

Go Airborne! Boom, you get payed and skydive hahahaha. Thats what I did.

But turbo man. Ez

Skydiving for sure. Anyone can buy a turbo. How many people can say they get to skydive with bat suits?

dr.gonzo! · February 1st, 2012, 12:53 AM

I have heard people say that the RipCord at worlds of fun is scarier than skydiving. If that is true $$$ per scare, I would say turbo. And are your sure you can bat suit on your own? Chances are youe will have to jump with a guy named "Chad" strapped your your ass.

HurrycaneStang · February 1st, 2012, 01:01 AM

You probably would have gotten more votes for Skydiving, on a Skydiving Forum lol...

swervo · February 1st, 2012, 01:02 AM

My vote is for a turbo.

No way in heck they'll let you out of the plane in a bat suit until you've jumped a good 20 or so times (at least around here).

The funny thing is that the skydiving will be considerably safer statistically speaking...

To be able to use a wingsuit you need 200 jumps in 18 months
