That's kind of a scary thought. What kind of track and what happens if something goes amiss--like a steering or brake job not quite up to spec?



Here is another NYC roof-top story. During WWII Aberchrombie & Fitch had a sale on Mannlicher-Schoenauers (they were a gun store then, not a clothing brand) because the only ammunition for them was German and unobtainable. My father went to see about one and they took him up on the roof to test fire into barrels of sand. If I recall correctly, that was at 38th and Park.

Can you imagine that today, helicopters, SWAT teams?
