Remember those stupid books "Everything I need i learned in Kindergarten"
crap?

We could write a book "Everything I needed to discuss building a rally car I learned watching Young Frankenstein and Airplane"


Stewardess "please you must come with me, something terrible has happened in the cockpit"

Stryker "what is it?"

Stewardess "Oh it's a little room at the front of the airplane with lots of dials and ....."

It's done, but needs repairs.

Wiring needs some help to cope with rally environment. Need to reseal the roof seam from when we peeled the skin off to finish the cage. The right-rear suspension is damaged after the "kick" at LSPR. The rally lights went back on the super-moto so we'll have to replace them with something else. The exhaust hangers need metal strap backup and positive fasteners on the stubs. The speedo and rally computer need some work.

Goood God man!

Fill that gap in your education ASAP.

And do a double feature and watch Young Frankenstein together with Airplane, its guaranteed to make you much faster.

And if you haven't seen it, you gotta watch Blazing Saddles. The epitome of non-PC!

I showed my poor innocent wife Blazing Saddles....poor thing...

Brooks and crew were geniuses.
Amazing they got funding to pull off such masterpieces..
