[Shotimes] RE: Clutch or Transmission

[Donald Mallinson]

I was at a show once where they did that.  About an hour 
after the engine quit, some people went back and the engine 
started right back up!

Takes a lot to get the engine in running condition, put it 
on a moveable platform, hook up to a battery (with computer? 
or easier to just get an older style engine that will run 
without one) and THEN hook it up to gas.

I can imagine insurance companies not liking this.
