Can't change the past, but maybe I can make up for all the RSC complaining with some links to interesting videos: 0 to 6400mph in 6 seconds (with sudden stop). It's a rocket sled world record. Click on the picture to see the video. Note how long and narrow the rocket flame gets near the end of the run. Hard to appreciate the speed since the camera is pretty far away. http://www.46tg.af.mil/world_record.htm Quite a bit slower but still interesting rocket bike: http://jeffareid.net/cgi-bin/rktbike.avi Unlike turbo hayabusa motorcycles that can go 227mph with stock farings and longer swing arms, many cars become lifting bodies at high speed. RX7 at 215mph at bonneville: http://jeffareid.net/cgi-bin/rx7215.wmv Mercedes at Lemans (199) http://jeffareid.net/cgi-bin/mrcfly.wmv Porsche at Petite Lemans Road Atlanta http://jeffareid.net/cgi-bin/prsfly.wmv Don Vesco (now passed away) reaching 470mph run at Bonneville (no incidents). http://www.teamvesco.com/fast_ride.htm Glider Dynamic Soaring at 229mph His comment about scary fast is the limits of the model (breaking up) Later he ran a 232mph run (see below), and one of the surfaces fluttered at high speed causing minor damage. The models are stronger now. http://jeffareid.net/cgi-bin/229.wmv For more info on dyanamic soaring visit this site. A good explanation for how it works, except ignore the part about low pressure / high pressure areas which don't contribute anything significant, it's just the difference in the speed of the air flow. Click on the lower left glider for an animated explanation, click on the lower right glider for the 232mph run. http://www.billpattersonart.com/dszone.swf Radio control heli, if you've never seen one of these doing extreme stunts, it's pretty impressive: http://jeffareid.net/cgi-bin/rcheli.wmv You can find a lot of rc heli videos by joining up (free) at http://www.helifreak.com Quadruple back flip from flying rings (Santa Monica, the original muscle beach, back in 1976, the guys name is Val). http://jeffareid.net/cgi-bin/quad.wmv I also have a lot of racing game videos on my web site if interested, just click on the racing game video link. http://jeffareid.net
seen your videos, a while back, the GTLegends one is probably the sole reason I kept trying to get that damn sim to run, despite some dipshit mistakes by me, lol. I like the RC boat too... However since the CHILDREN of RAS takes a goddam debate to the deepest bowls of purgatory and hate, hell I get excited and cuss, but that isn't anything... half post here in fun, half in hate, rest because they think they know jack, yeah a couple actually do... IMHO you wasting bandwidth on these guys, is money wasted period. I disagreed with you viemently, but AFAIK that didn NOT mean I hated ya or anyone, even those dumbass foreigners who hate Dubbya and or USA (flame away)... Jeff Reid enlightened us with:

I'm sorry to inform you about this PlowBoy, but this newsgroup is very, very tame if you consider standard Usenet practice. It gets some form of off-topic activity, but it's probably one of the most topical and informal NG you can have (I'm subscribed to 100+ of them). Trust me, just look around to other newsgroup and you'll see hell-unleached-on-earth in the vast majority. Heck I'm not even talking about the old Jacob NG. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- This announcement is brought to you by the Shimago-Dominguez Corporation - helping America into the New World...

But you're right. It does suck how here in the UK schools (and people in general) make very little effort to learn other languages. I try French and Spanish, but I'm not very good at either :(
