Years of Development
« on: July 06, 2015, 10:51:20 AM »
This past weekend I was in Ohio with Billy working on trimming the new plane. Every time I go there I see things that are so impressive and shows how many years Billy has been developing engines and planes. He shows me all these different planes and I ask why he changed things on this one compared to the earlier one... and he tells me the reason and normally he was just curious what would happen. Well this weekend we were talking about tune pipes. And he showed me three bins full of prototype tune pipes. (Over 150 prototypes) Showing all the experiments that helped him arrive where he is today. Just thought it would be fun to share.

Lawnmowers and gokarts are fine but I'd rather have him saying"Ya call that a triangle???.............THIS is a triangle!!!".A coach like Billy would be worth a thousand karts y1 y1 y1

Just an FYI a thousand Go Karts of the kind I race would be 10 million dollars so, would you still trade that for triangle advise?

Yes, unless of course someone really agreed to buy all of them for $10,000 each!  Billy would likely give a lot more than just triangle advice for that!   <=  LL~ LL~

Looks like he out in the suburbs.  When I lived on the farm the grass got cut maybe twice a year for hay.  Good years it was three times.

He lives on a Ranch with 7 horses and Ponies on a few acres. Ranches can have long grass....
