Check out the neat slo-motion video of combustion in a cylinder. It 
was filmed at 10,000 frames per second and shows the compression / 
ignition stroke and what happens in the cylinder to the gases. Neat 
stuff. Then scroll down and read the comments - some guys are 
baffled. You see the spark, but at 10,000 fps it seems like it comes 
way too early, but we do remember that spark occurs BTDC - right? <G> 
You may have also seen this on the Hemmings site. http://www.autoblog.com/
