Boy is that ever true- and it's good to remind people of that fact.
BTW, what about the Land Speed Record!? I saw pictures of that British Jet
Car- I don't know if the driver is crazy or brave or both.
I wonder how the wheels avoid being vaporized during the runs by
contact with tiny irregularities in the salt flats. Seems to me that the
need for friction to maintain control would conflict catastrophicly with
the need to avoid damage to the running gear at supersonic speed!
Anyone out there have any analysis or details on that paradox?
If Ray G. were here, I'm sure he would have had something to say.
