So, what's the BIG DEAL?

yOU ARE RIGHT, with a stimulus package and the will, one can do ANYTHING!!

That's an impressive achievement for your son! What vehicle will it be powering to achieve such remarkable acceleration? Not that I'm into this kind of thing, but you have to give props to those who can pull it off without imploding their motors or taking off!

Like the salt flats, there are few visual cues that allow us to appreciate the sense of speed. I liked the end run when the quarter signs are blowing by. At that point he's nearly twice the take off speed of a typical jet.

Btw, we can cut out the middle man and you can send the check directly to me! Big Grin
