This thread is incredibly edutaining. Helmetness.... Right up there with MPaulHolmes' EV conversion!

Remember you don't need a Guino to do coastdown or terminal velocity tests! I'd love to see some stats to prove the Force is ... less.. against you. I think.

Bullyveldt: head to either a sign shop, or else you might luck out at a Home Depot type place. (They carry it at H.D. where I live - $20 per 4x8.) Too bad you didn't know about the stuff when the federal election was on a few weeks back!
