With DOHC, 500 C.I. and 9 grand rev, my guess is it'll sound like a Ferrari on crack!

Sorry I have been out of the loop the last few weeks. Burning the candle a t both ends on the unmanned projects.

Here is from this past week:

This is the ABC, Channel 10 clip from San Diego this week.
http://www.10news.com/video/29657352/index.html

Also the live interview with KUSI which I believe is a CBS affiliate.
http://www.kusi.com/video?clipId=6412249&autostart=true

Here is the NBC clip:
http://www.nbcsandiego.com/video/#!/news/local/Military-Drones-Cut-Manpower-Costs/133053658

There were also clips done by Fox and some military affiliates.

Enjoy.

Bruce...that is freaking sic! I have an iPhone, so feel free to send me one and I can test it out for you.

Think of doing a 0-60 run in a Camaro at a drag strip and then turning the other direction within the width of the car without losing speed. It's fairly radical. We regularly crank turns of that magnitude in most runs. It really shows us which components are up to the task and if they were mounted properly.

So you can make a boat do 10-15g's but you cant get your car to run?

Something is wrong here Bruce

This is a never ending cycle as mine is now back in the shop as well. I think you and I have the longest running time periods of owning our cars and never getting to drive them.

What happened to your car? I thought you did really well with it at Indy.

I have a lot of what ifs on that boat... what if the US military will not buy the boat? will you sell it to other countries like canada, australia, great britain, france, germany or any other superpowers? what if china military will buy 1 boat from you for whatever price you want, will you sell it to them? I really do hope that US miltary will get them from you though.

obviously I can't speak for Bruce, but we've done a little collaborating on this project.

I'm pretty sure that the US Military will get head of the line.

Anyone that is not 100% allies with the US can eat $#!&.... There is NO amount of money (it just isn't worth it) to let 'others' have this technology. Have already spoken with NSA.

Yep. There is interest from quite a few places. Only friendly ones need apply.
