as much as i'd like any of these machines... if i had one, i'd have no place

very impressive, but i'll hold out for the one thats big enough for me to
walk up to the controls, type in "twin engine scirocco", come back in an
hour and start 'er up :)

...till then, its nose to the grindstone, and the headaches that go with it.

i've spent the entire break so far:
- coming up with a double-redundant, 4 channel, braking system.
- finalizing the design for the active suspension (only loose end is where
to get the actual struts). anyone got a bud working at koni/boge/etc??? :)
how about some experiences with cheap struts that can actually be
disassembled (and modded to my specs). any of the pistons i have found
simply arent designed to deal with the large radial stresses that are placed
on the strut while cornering.
- working on some formulas for coordination of 2 engines, active suspension,
traction control, virtual-lsd, abs, and a bunch of other crapola.

planned for the next few days:
- weld up the gaping hole down the center of the floorpan (where the 'hump'
used to be).
- sitting on me arse :P
