I was 23 then and used to riding around on dirt bikes or cruisers.
One of our favorite things to do with the Turbo was to get into 2nd or 3rd gear, just easing along and roll on the throttle.
The boost gauge would start climbing, then WHAM :!: it would slide you back on the seat and lift the front wheel up a bit. :twisted:
Lotsa drive-by "Hey ya'll, watch this :!: "
