    YIKES! What a monster! I loved all of the flames, spare bolts, and small animals shooting out the exhaust when it fired up.

    edit: Stefan Marjoram, who posted those videos, is a 911 guy. He used to post here, or on Pelican with his beautiful photos. Pretty cool that he is the photographer/film-maker/artist on the Bloodhound SST team who is documenting the LSR effort. I used to keep in touch with him years ago when he was working on the Wallace and Grommet clay animations. He takes some amazing pictures.

    Can you imagine being behind the wheel at 135MPH with what amounts to 4 bicycle tires connecting you to Mother Earth?

    * LMAO at the Wallace & Gromit connection. That engine is not far off one of W & G's contraptions. I may have to pop in one of my DVDs tonight

    One of my favorite AQ covers was Volume 5 Number 4 -- unfortunately not currently in my collection, but here's a grab off the web...
