Did you know you can't run a new engine on a decent dyno without the manufacturers consent?
This is a collusion between the dyno runners and the manufacturers, and stops you checking the validity of that 60000000BHP at the flywheel claim. You can run the whole car, but that is a different sort of dyno.
I wish I knew what was in it for the dyno runners though - only bit that doesn't make sense
Seriously though, I've been designing a big spaceship style control panel thingy for the sprogs for a while now, and this is the kind of thing I want. Your suggestions have been taken on board, and added to the growing parts list.
If it wouldn't make a good sci-fi set, or look like a CRAY, it ain't big iron. I recently relaxed the requirement that it has tape reels and men with clipboards wandering through it. They can now be women...
And another thing - I stopped reading sigs a long time ago, when i realised there was an option to block them, and you just put yours in the text field. I bet you complain about spam as loud as the rest of em, eh?
Asshat
I wouldn't expect my car to be stolen in the thirty seconds between me signing the contract and leaving teh forecourt. In fact, I would expect there to be some security in the vehicle to start with.
Nah, I lie, Any car I buy is gonna be such a dog noone will want to steal it. Diesel badges work so far...
This was covered in a niven story - a ship accidently went back too far, introducing a point effect into a non medium - a singularity - causing the big bang, which only exists because of the fantastical odds of a species arising who could build a ship that went too far back and caused ---NO CARRIER---

Human activity to blame
Sorry. I'd better stop then.
