@NativePortlander Oh not just fur trading. That family had monopolies on a lot of things that were sold in the USA. They amassed a huge fortune.

@cherokeepatti Fur trading is what I think of most in the Colonial American wilderness when the French are mentioned.

@NativePortlander Yes most Americans think of that. Because they didn’t teach in public schools about what the Payseurs did in America.

Probably because they were no match for the Nazi Panzer division during World War II.

@Barefooter25 Their president welcomed hitler with open arms in 1940, while the resistance sacrificed many members getting the allies crucial info to make D-Day possible.

I actually own one of these. They weren't very popular either but it sure is a lot of fun.

Tracked vehicles don't have as much speed but have more power and traction.

@TexChik thats how i know you don't race snowmobiles

TexChik · F

@Mistakesmakeus sure don’t. That wasn’t a snowmobile

Mistakesmakeus · M

@TexChik you said tracked vehicles implying ALL tracked vehicles. But that only means you haven't raced in track vehicles including snowmobiles which can go extremely fast if tuned correctly
