It's not something I read in a magazine.... It's PHYSICS.
Well I have a camaro and a vette you need to go for a ride in on the street that will change your mind.

physics is nice but you can't beat real results...with physics you could probably postulate and proof that the sun revolves around the earth, physics means nothing until your model (since that's what it always will be, a mathematical model of the real thing) matches the real deal so closely that you can use it to predict certain things and even account for them....blah blah blah

Still a good write up and it's a shame it's all the way down the list so..bump

Wow, my post was removed, I guess I have givin breathial all the crap the moderaters could take. so I only have one Question, what does breathial stand for? What does it mean? Just curious Eric. It must have some meaning for you and I am just curious what it means. Breath it all, that's what I get out of it, am I correct?
