"'Splain me, Lucy"
The airport has a course? Coast-down tests are a student project?
Five tunnels with one wind, or one tunnel with five winds?

They have an aeronautical program at the local airport.Coastdowns would be done on the taxiways.
The university has five different wind tunnels.

Whenever it says you can't post again for 30 seconds, you don't need to. I think it is from double-clicking the submit button.

I had scanned 39 new images into the computer and was trying to get them into Photobucket which took 1.5-hours to accept only 10-photos.I shuffled back and forth between windows to try and be productive.
I thought I had submitted my response but there was no indication that it had posted,so I hit the button a second time.
When I left the forum and then went back in,it indicated the double-post.
Fun with computers!
I'm hoping to get on the other computer here,which has my personal file with all the scans later,and continue with Photobucket.
Two weeks ago Photobucket did the same funny business.Love it!

Spotted in Baytown Texas today! 
Got to meet up with @deejaa and he got a chance to check the rig out. Had some lunch together and had fun watching the sharks circle the rig.

Lots of piccies were being snapped of the rig when I was driving back home. Not sure why...I guess they've never seen a truck before or something.
Got an indicated 27.9mpg at 65mph going out and an indicated 26.5mpg at 65mph coming back in. I had to take a stop and go penalty by driving down the access road on the way back so I could git some shadows off my butt who were clogging up the fast lane. Otherwise, I think I would've had a better indicated mileage on the drive back home.

You should have Cd paint it like his dog-portrait car. 
I hope that sighting in Baytown was parked, or using Augmented Reality. |

Yes, the rig was parked as it would be rather hard to drive with the cab cover on.
Flat black paint works well fer what I do.
