Yea, the dimwit that came up with that one must have never seen a race car.
Keep up the good work, all of this is to be considered in the world of the Model A/B.
Also, if the original Turbo Encabulator article surfaces, I would like to send to some youngsters at work, just to see their reactions.........
I have a copy of the original article published in the Washington Engineer in 1949.
