Because this was my dumb idea, I will go out on the weekend as it's only an hour from my place and take some pics and post them when I return.

has anyone looked at Cudal airport? it used to be the base for hazelton and is near orange, went passed a couple of months ago and it had farm machinery on the runway reasonably certain it int being used Location City: Cudal, New South Wales, Australia ICAO / IATA: YCUA / CUG Details Type: Airport (...

Bathurst airport is a bit of a drama, as it is used 24/7 you never know when someone will turn up, I have a nice little culdesac (end of fleming dr, I have used a few times.. the Beard boys have used it for years too lol) none of the neighbours seem to care, although we were worried when the highway...

What do you guys think of people going after soft records?? a.. there is no such thing, they are all harder than they look b.. it's all good as a stepping stone to better and faster c. All's fair.. go for it d.. the more soft records that get broken the less there are, so thats good e.. don't be suc...

I am pretty sure it relies on the ball spinning and I dont like the idea of spinning at big speed in an el Falcon lol I actually had a mate do a thesis at uni on different types of golf ball dimples. Obviously his claims were all BS as that was in 1983 and the dimples all look the same as they did t...

thanks

Dont think i will be quite that fast lol

Hi Guys any budding aero engineers want to comment?? In the chase for the best cd, where is the point where added wetted area loses you more than you gain on cd changes eg you could build a 70 foot long streamliner with a cd of .1 but a laymans guess is that it would be less efficient than a 30 foot...

funny you should mention that, cos there is already a
number of double mamba engines which are basically
that, 2 strapped together with a common gearbox

60 year old technology with almost 3000 hp yeeehaaa

I'm glad I missed the c18 (not sure my mum wanted to be sold as well) I havent ever seen a mamba, they were built late 40's early 50's?? do you know their physical dimensions there is not much info on them an ex gf told me the other day "He who dies with the most toys ... still dies" now t...

yep those are the allison c20 there are heaps of people using them in things in the states lots of boats and also a guy using a get53 i think in a boat with 1350 shp there was also a dude using a small (about 100hp) turbine in a kart check out www.turbokart.com problem is they are hard to get out he...

Not sure about teslas designs.. sometimes he seems like a genius other times like a lunatic I seriously doubt the shaft hp, but hey who am I to doubt? compare it to an allison c20 that makes 318 shp at about 80k rev I think a version was 420 hp for a short period for take-off Anyway build yourself a...

an article on abc Mt Ive Station, in the heart of The Gawler Ranges, has Lake Gairdner as its Northern boundary and it's the only property within the Gawler Ranges with visitor facilities. We asked our host and owner of Mt Ive Station, Len Newton, just how and why he got involved in these trials. Pa...

Quantum computers... if you understand them
then this compressible fluid should be soooo easy

Awesome!! not only do I get sensible answers
but scientific reasoning. I wish every forum I have been on
in the past gave such good info.
It's been over 20 years sice uni, I forgot how much science
actually makes sense (although I never did any chemistry)

now onto doing some work

Thanks goggles Most of those are the reasons I had planned not to run suspension. I started this project last august but had been on hold since december (loss of job) I had planned on going this year to spectate. I have been on landracing.com for 18 months, and had decided on no suspension because o...
