As far as airplanes go, the Nemesis NXT just looks the business more than about anything else with a propellor.

Many years ago our RC flying club had a guest speaker who was an aerobatic pilot with the Canadian Reds. He told the story of having to land his S2A dead stick. He said it had the glide ratio of a Simonized crowbar. Hotlink below of a model of his plane because I can't find a picture of the real thing.

Didn't is a contraction, and a single word.  Compound words are words like suitcase, combined by bringing two other words together to form a new one.

Came in to work with this parked next to my spot and a stack of 225/45-15 Rivals near one of the doors.

 

 

Spline drive lug nuts!

 

In the building overnight:

 

 

FM sticker.  Find one on every Miata, you'll see...

 

 

NOT a BP engine.  The DIYAutotune LS wiring harness looks way better than any other aftermarket harness I have seen.  Looks even better than OEM!

 

Turns out I know the car's owner/builder.  Car apparently used to have a built BP pushing 42psi boost.  I'll have to remind him to bring those IGN-1A coils he was going to sell me.  Apparently LS coils do not work so good over 28psi so he upgraded to the monsters.  He offered to sell them to me when we were talking last fall while he was planning the LS swap...

I'd have to go with Matty Laird's Super Solution simply because of the name. Jimmy Doolittle doesn't hurt.

Definitely a 413 Wedge "Sonoramic Commando" long-runner cross-ram

Hemi crossrams are much more blocky and put the carbs inboard of the valve covers
