Some past history for your viewing.

I love the USA. How much longer will we be a free nation?

Asking questions is one's only way of getting answers.

The rational person lets verified facts form or modify his opinion.  The ideologue ignores verified facts which don't fit his preconceived opinions.

Thank you for posting this . . . interesting stuff!

The Vesco team sure knew how to "get it done".

I was curious about something . . . one of those photos showed the two engines.
Two-stroke engines in those days lost a lot of power if they got too warm.  So
how were these two engines cooled?  If by outside air, this would have compromised
the slipperiness of the vehicle's overall shape.  Did Vesco use liquid cooling that
isn't shown in the photo?
