I’m torn between two here.

That one sent me searching, it certainly is a pretty aircraft!

That was great to read! And great analysis of a pilot’s career. I imagine a PT-6A would get old, same for the turbofans powering most commercial aircraft. It’s much like a ‘57 Thunderbird vs. a ‘97 Thunderbird - there’s just some manner of soul that’s missing.

The LMPs look rather large in photos by themselves, it’s always mind-blowing to see the actual size of the LMPs when compared to something produced for the street.

Ah yes, the long-forgotten, and short-lived sport that should have been a contender for the Olympics: Synchronized MG Jumping!

Car? No. Motorcycle? I’ve been pining away at a motorcycle I once loved and lost. I found her again, but no way to rescue her and give her the treatment she deserves, and boy has she been run through the wringer.

I’d love to see one reworked by HPA Motorsports.

How you really get sweet, sweet revenge on someone that’s done you dirty.

Tourx...is that pronounced like torx or like Turks? [/snark]

The only car I can use is a poorly-restored 1983 Mercury Marquis. Mercury did not say that I could not modify, restore, or otherwise tweak the Marquis. So, I take the job as the CEO of Ford, and, having access to a whole slew of goodies and Ford’s engineering team, turn the Marquis into something that makes people…

Just read this article:

Yep, those boats sound incredible! Nothing like the sound of a hydroplane running at full wick as it rips across the water.

Very cool - and was not aware of that previously.

Didn’t know that - I thought Merlin was the name of the engine family. Either way, still sounds fantastic!

Adolf certainly didn’t. Neither did Emporer Hirohito.

Ah yes, that glorious, 12-cylinder sound!

Does it have to be in an automobile?
