now,
the 1/64 scale question, can it be done?
well, I plan to find out
mig rig is the first test bed
after building 2 pulse jets....well...
testing begins tomorrow
(the stacks are jets, too)
that is not a problem, the pwr plant need a name,
as does the truck w/ migrig.
I will send a car for both names. (I do deliver)
Testing on video starts tomorrow
the real goal, will it melt cars?
we will hope so
retired, and completely out of control, and I need names (w/ anachronism as a joke, bonus pts)
gettin' ready for the fair
