safty tips S70 98

my car has just reached 25k, and i am planning on a self induced crash test! does anyone have any tips to do it safely? I want to do it right!! Should i do it against a wall or a stationary car? I have quite a few mods, which puts my car at approx. 280 brake horsepower. My car has front and side airbags, should i bring my whole family? So far, is just me and my dog. Your comments are greatly appreciated..

Regards,

Angus Sahara

Anus,

While Vadim's suggestion would test the front air bags, I recommend stopping on the railroad tracks with the car perpendicular to the tracks. Let the dog out of the car, leaving yourself in it. Upon the arrival of a fully loaded coal train, you should find out how well your side impact airbags work.

Best of luck!!

IMHO, the best way would be to drive to the nearest railtrack crossing, wait for a cargo train and then accelerate like hell into it. Just make sure you are doing at least 45mph. It should be safe - I read about a women whose Volvo crashed into a train and got dragged for a mile or so - she walked away from the scene.

Is your dog's name SAFTY? Nonetheless, it must have a conscience.
