Yes, that's the sticker on the outside of the plastic cover. The same cover people put on so their sticker doesn't get stolen.
Pennsylvania did something intelligent and got rid of those stickers. You still pay the same for yearly registration though. Just more profit for the government.

Could be for that too.

No big deal. You just wasted an F-16 with a Vulcan Cannon. It doesn't seem like this could or should be able to happen "by accident".

I have worked on house sized ship engines, and you would think not, but the issues are the same there.


So we have this Huuuuuuuuge engine, so why dont we put stuff on it all in the same place and right beside and also on top of each other, so if you need to work on one part you have to remove 4 other parts first.


Engineers.

It is a 911 The longest running joke in the world.
But dont get me wrong, just about any year of it is better than some of the lego stuff they crank out today.
And i respect its heritage ! but i would never ever buy one, not even for a track day car,,,,,, if track days even existed where i live.


BUT !



It is good to be rich, or the kind of person that used to be rich.
Then you can buy just what you like.

Maybe not a WTH but the Ford Mach E 1400 that has 7 electric motors sound like it might be using outrunners maybe?

I like the harmony of multiple brushed motor spinning along like in my MOA but not so much with outrunners.

The Mach E 1400 is it a one off for racing/hooning project (?)

The street car version will be like that.

Also WTH is with the name? If you've heard anyone say it out loud it sounds like marquis or marky and at no point does my brain process oh yeah the "mach....E" I get it

They're "Pancake Motors" from what I've read, possibly 4 in the back and 3 in the front, I'm guessing stacked like a 3 and 4 Rotor engines and maybe running through a more conventional gearbox on each end........well, as close to conventional for what we play with in scale anyway
