@emg77: On ours, which is only a 72 foot track, we had to add a couple booster wires to various places of the track. Plus, it's powered by a G-gauge train transformer..., no way a standard slot car "power slot" would do anything close to that. #mercedeseclass
Now I'm picturing a fellow Jalop going in for a psych exam. The shrink holds up a Rorschach inkblot and asks "What do you see?" The Jalop replies, "Transmisison fluid." On the next picture, the Jalop says "Motor oil." On the last one the Jalop jokingly responds with "Blinker fluid" and is immediately declared insane. #mercedeseclass

@brake booster by Lucas: Lately I've been a fan of Lion Stout 8% from Sri Lanka (I like Guinness, but too watery for me). Plus, the sheer wastefulness of drinking a beer brewed/bottled/canned on the COMPLETE OTHER SIDE of the world releases a lot of CO2 during transportation.
@Ash78, 4 days left: Umm...Isn't Sri Lanka on the other side too? Actually it seems to be even far from the US than Ireland is. Geography is not my strong point so correct me if I am wrong.
OK, I just read the complaint. The CO2 emissions claim wasn't the problem at all. It's the fact that they used "its" instead of "it's" and "theres" instead of "there's".

It's the new Mercedes cargo van testbed.
The mirrors give it away... #mercedeseclass

I'm surprised that even worked. There would be a huge voltage drop over 1300 feet of track.

You may want to double check that title, though. #mercedeseclass

My argument for sitting on the sofa being good for the planet is unassailable.
Someone throw me a Guinness...from Ireland. I want the good stuff.

I'm glad to hear someone say they want a beer with more body than Guinness, because I get eye rolls when I mention it.
Lion Stout...I'll keep an eye out.
I wish we could get more of the world's stouts here. I might have to go on a local hunt....
