Yeah he tagged it pretty well. We had a heck of a snow/ice storm roll in here and he didn't quite get home from practice before it got really bad. Thankfully it was low speed and he didn't even have a single scratch on him. Certainly gave his parents quite a scare though.

Thanks for the real-world feedback guys. I have him reading all of this so he can get an education on such matters. I agree with you on the eval Lil John, but I do like helping him learn by doing versus me just telling him what I think he should do. Kids have lost the skill of problem solving...
