That vehicle and the mini-guns as a combo would be nice

Folks, Jim has a lot of knowledge to offer.


Nice to run across your name again!. My knowledge of you goes back to the list user days when your book was a free file. Not too long ago I bought the paperback.

Look at the sky, we are being sprayed almost daily. Those white cloudy trails up there are chemicals that are debilatating us slowly. Condensation trails from jet aircraft disapear seconds after the jet flys by. These CHEM TRAILS spread out and linger filling the sky with whispy clouds full of Bromide, Barrium, tiny aluminum particles and blood products. NEW WORLD ORDER. WAKE UP AMERICA

Oh man! Guys, Joe is right!!!!


Taken this morning north of DFW! Chem trails!!!???

I would love to get one of the variations of the Shadowhawk

Each of Shadow Hawk Vehicles' Super Terrain Vehicles share the same technologies: daylight cameras, active suspension, camber and caster control systems, driver activated ride height control, 46 inch wheel travel, 3/16 inch monocoque construction and so on. The differences between the Super Terrain Vehicles are their features, and in one case, the monocoque material. For example, there are no visual differences between the Steel Hawk and Street Hawk unless you open the engine compartment. The monocoque material is different though no visual method to identify this difference. The same is true between the Terra Hawk and the Street Hawk. Unless the rear rest area of the Terra Hawk is raised, there are no visual differences between these models.

ENGINE

The Shadow Hawk can use any engine format it wants, so why was a diesel power plant selected? Because the Shadow Hawk needs to service three extremely different disciplines without one compromise, diesel power was the only engine with the horsepower and torque characteristics that could do so. Looking at diesel performance, remember that Audi and Peugeot's diesel-powered Le Mans racecars beat all of the gas powered competitors, combined, for the last four years straight. Performance, when speaking about engines, is a measure of its ability to produce usable power, and lots of it, at a usable rpm. The new diesels, with the recently rediscovered compound turbo charging, high-pressure direct-port fuel injection, and state-of-the-art computerized engine control, produce massive amounts of usable power and get greater fuel mileage in the process. The Shadow Hawk produces 1,100 horsepower and can still get greater than 20 miles per gallon; this is a feat that cannot be accomplished by any known gasoline engine. What makes the diesel power plant even more attractive is its ability to be just as drivable as a stock diesel while making these enormous power figures.

To make a monster like this reliable requires the bottom end to be stronger than normal. The Shadow Hawk uses an aerospace double-vacuum-melted alloy steel billet crank shaft and rods, special alloy pistons, with a proprietary partial vapor-deposition coating that dramatically reduces friction and wear. Other Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) coatings are also used on the valve train and camshaft. PVD coatings increase the critical components service life and reduce friction increasing the engines overall efficiencies and power output. The push-to-pass technology has two missions: the first is to increase overall power with the push of a button and the second is to reduce emissions, with computer controlled actuation, at key moments, during normal engine's operation. This is an engine with no challengers.lp

Drivetrain

Spider Drive Transaxle

The transaxle design is called the Spider Drive. The Spider Drive is an existing patent held by Shadow Hawk Vehicles, but there are new technologies added to the original design. The design is simpler, smaller in size, and much more powerful. The Spider Drive is designed to handle 2,500 foot pounds of engine torque; this is unprecedented in a transmission of this size.

Clutch System

The clutch system changes everything you know about clutches. First it does not use friction as a control medium. Second, it will engage, disengage, or slip at any rate of engagement for hours without failing or over heating. Third, it can control the output rotations extremely precisely right down to repeatable fractions of a revolution. Fourth, in can be, controlled electrically and directly by a computer without any mechanical assistance required.

Indi Trac

Indi Trac is an electronic control system that controls the four clutches that apply power to each of the wheels. This control system can vary the power, independently, to each of the wheels from zero to 100 percent in real time. As an example, as a vehicle approaches a corner, more power can be applied to the rear wheels to push a vehicle into the corner then power can be shifted to the front of the vehicle pulling it out the corner. Power can also be applied from the left side of the vehicle to right, to prevent binding or bias from taking place in the turn and help steer the vehicle through the turn. This system works both in the application of power and reduction of power. Indi Trac works in harmony with the brake system.

I've yet to see any high volume air samplers confirm the contents of the trails so the jury is still out. However, the spraying for cousin skeeter does distribute some nasty crap harmful to us humans the toss up is which is worse cousin skeeter or the pesticide?

Yeah, no kidding. The county will start spraying here pretty soon. They've already started farther south.....

I've done a standing water audit in my back yard... if I couldn't disperse the water, I put bleach in to kill the larvae and then a cap of vegetable oil to float on the water. But, that's just my prevention methods... I talked to my neighbors about it and they didn't seem to care. I even offered to do the work for them.

We've got a 5 month old at home so, we're more concerned about West Nile than we'd normally be. Thankfully, my 6 year old and I don't get bitten very often by mosquitoes, but my wife and baby get swarmed...

Try eating garlic and brewers yeast too works for most, good luck there.

I've decided I need to put a diesel in my range rover. 24 gallons at 10 mpg won't get me very far. I can't believe this thread is still going. #200
