meh I'm not a fan. I don't think it would have helped Scott in his case. If his engine had blown at 1000 ft, he still would have been going almost 300 mph and been going way to fast into the kitty litter. It was the lack of a blossomed chute and probably being knocked unconscience that killed him. I think they need to focus on the parachutes and a better netting system at the end of the track. If they can safely catch fighter jets on a aircraft carrier deck, they can catch a car at the end of a track.
It allows me to measure valve travel so I can look at bounce, velocity, acceleration, duration, area, and loft at any rpm.
I've also got a bunch of custom tools our cnc shop came up with that makes my life a whole lot easier.
Jesus christ just re-air the UK version on Monday. Way less work, much better show, everyone wins. Cut out the interview and use that time to add commercials. Just like BBC-america has started to do but on a network station like NBC to get a much larger audience. If it's not broke, don't fix it. It's not the #1 show in the world for nothing.
