no, this is what happens when you substitute a roach clip for a main fuse in a "pinch"

Yikes! Glad they were able to get to the fire before it ruined everything.

Wonder what a warehouse fire will do to his carbon footprint?

*flame suit on* that was a really cool car, sucks that it burnt up. I guess even the car gods aren't ready to give in to hybrid tech.

He has some really cool stuff in that warehouse. Lots of history in there too. Some nice cars came close to being lost in that fire. I'm just glad we didn't have any equipment in there.

Yeah, it's not my first choice of platform for a project, but the work / engineering that went into it (perhaps not the wiring) is impressive.

I just posted it for the schadenfreude aspect of seeing some proselytizing eco-dork bit in the arse by the windmill he's trying to get us all to tilt at along with him.

i'd love to build a LNG or CNG pro-touring car with 14:1 compression.
