Is it your first attempt to compete with Elon Musks Hyperloop?

TDI engines and manual gearboxes are simple enough to do manually, but a V8 with a 5HP24 is a different matter entirely

One of the best new things I've seen in a long time
And I've seen a lot of new things.

Awesome!
I've got a feeling that this may get some regular use - which is good, but could also be bad!

Nice one.
I do admire folk that are able to build rigs like this. Once upon a time I combined all the aicraft component electrical test rigs into one humongous test bench. It even included a big red switch at the top of the backboard labelled "Emergency Shutdown". If you operated this switch there was a pause of some 20 seonds then a loud whirring and clunking of gears started up and a gloved hand with a pointing finger slowly appeared over the top. The finger was perfectly aligned with the switch toggle, pushed it back down to the "ON" position. The hand then sprang very quickly and quietly back out os sight. Completely useless but good for a laugh when visitors came to admire the rig. Well done MJ
