    Looks real good. Outstanding result!
  2. Stunning build. Really outstanding work!
  3. That is simply stunning! Great job.
  4. Great job! Like the color of the paint a lot. The stance fits the look of the car superbly.
  5. Looks great! Cale was a fierce competitor, and as Mark J wrote, he could win in anything.
  6. Great work! One of my all-time favorites.
  7. That is truly outstanding work. They all look fabulous!
  8. Kansas City gave San Francisco every opportunity to win the game. The 49ers just could not put them away.
  9. Boeing wrote the book on how NOT to build an airplane. How they come back from this is beyond me.
  10. To answer the original poster’s question. The article I read stated that this was nothing more than a test. The current Cup race car was designed to accommodate an EV power plant if the NASCAR racing community ever chooses to go in that direction. The article also stated that NASCAR officials watched a race in Japan with hydrogen powered cars as they were guests of Toyota. Toyota appears to be a big proponent of using hydrogen to power cars instead of batteries. Lastly, NASCAR officials in this article clearly stated that they have no intention of moving away from the internal combustion engine for the foreseeable future. Yes, one can argue that the foreseeable future is a relative term; however, team owners at all three levels of NASCAR are struggling with costs. This includes some of the big teams. It will be very expensive to move to this technology, and overnight make all of their drivetrain equipment obsolete. This includes the equipment they use to build and test the drivetrains.

    Great work! J.D. McDuffie was one of the unsung heroes of the sport.
  12. This is a great tip and I have copied it for future use. Many thanks. I have a question if you do not mind. The coaxial cable has a wire going through it that you remove and replace. Why replace the wire in the coaxial cable?
