WTF dude you are going to get yourself killed. As someeone who has driven with NVGs on your depth perception is seriously lacking, and if you want to experience tunnel vision that is the way to do it. Part of military driver training is to take HMMWVs out at night and cruise around at slow speeds. Its hard as sh*t to see whats out there, besides the fact they weigh about 22lbs after wearing them for an hour. I seriously hope you reconsider this.

 

[sm=boosign.gif]ah man dont u realize that the movie "red line" was exactly that a MOVIE!? the guy on therethat used the nvgs to go 200+ past a cop is all fake!i have used and maintaned nvgs and im sure what u have "purchased" is nothing compared to military issue unless u coughed up a grip for this use! oh yeah if u decide to do this make sure somebody records it so u can see urself go end over end from a hittin a black mark in the road which turns out to be a pothole the size ofcoffee table! also im assuming that u wont be wearing a lid due to the fact that nvgs wont fit under ur face shield!? also there not anywhere as easy as u might think from seein these high speed rambo movies, if the moon is not right ur gonna have a hell of a time seein. dont waste ur time or risk injury cuz of what a movie makes u believe can be done. how many peoplethink they can jump a ramp and land on a train like the movie torque? or do a christ air during a drag race and beat two other bikes like biker boys?[sm=forgetit.gif]

 

lol dude i bought NVG for OIF 1 and used some of the newer versions last summer. you think your driving past like 35 - 50ish with those and living, uh please tell me your older then 18 and have thought this one out

 

Well I wont be plowing down any multipurpose vehicles. If I go blurry after 35, so be it.

These are non mil NVGs. They do fit inside my helmet.

Yes I am over 18 and I have thought this through only three times.

I did see Redline and it is NOT what inspired me to do this. That movie was horrible.

Thankyou for your feedback.

I'll be in touch.

 

The biggest problem I have with all this nonsense is the fact that you have no regard for public safety during your "tests."

Testing these at 80 mph on public roadways with ALL your lights turned off is in no way anywhere close to being considered a sane thing to do. If you must conduct these tests, take it to a back roads with no access points along the length of the test run ensure that no one pulls out in front of your car during your "lights-out" test.

 

Attach a laser pointer to the goggles too and turn it on and pretend you're like a super secret ninja robot sent from the future to kill all the humans on earth!!!!! You'll see the laser beam shooting through the air and then make gun noises like "PEW PEW PEW VVVVVSHHHHHPSCHEWWWWWWW!!!!" IT'LL BE FREAKIN AWESOME!

 

Idiotic posts deserve the negative replies they get. This idea is beyond stupid.

Oh your too good. [sm=icon_rofl.gif]

 

If the man is acustom to his nvg's and knows about visual illusions and cues, ie:target fixation, spatial disorientation, geometric perspective, false horizons, just to name a few, and is on a closed course as he said he would be, he'll be fine and prolly have a kick *** story to tell. I'v landed a UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter in confined, dusty, uneven areas with 0% illumination more times than I can count. You can have a bit of depth perception, just got to look for the right cues. Just don't smoke befor doing it, raises you psylogical altitude to 3000 ft, or, gives you brain less oxygen wich decresses night vision. Also, wear sunglasses all day befor the test run, helps with dark adaptiation, takes longer than one would imagine to become fully addapted. Yes it does really help with the NVG's. Ease up on him, He's not wanting to drag race down your block, or peg the speedo on the Highway. Anyway, I have some NVG's and am awaiting the outcome....J/K
