    So when the gauge went to zero, that's when you hit the ejection switch? That IS what the big red "E" stands for, right? :)

    That's actually a good question....what DO you do with that information? :)

    IF the car didn't fall apart mid apex, was the driver supposed to just pull over and save the car for another day?

    I do like them very much but these days I'm more interested in building my own race cars.

    All at the same time! :eek:

    How cool is that!? ;)

    +1 That final iteration was truly a beast. But the "original" short tail remains the prettiest of them all IMO. Almost (but not quite ;)) made me a fan of the marque.

    Cheers,
    Ian
