On the lighter side   --- A car on the street with NO reverse gear  ????. b=
et your life.I was in a streetcar downtown Copenhagen during a massive traf=
fic jam.A woman in a Messersmitt (mess o shit). She had to reverse and the =
engine flooded (2 cycle). Know a lot of big ships use the same way to rever=
se.
For years I nibbled at the Idea.Let her run downhill in high gear and let t=
he clutch out.Did it finally.
Do think it through before trying !!! -- Remember the Oilpump is a gearpump=
,and the vanepump in injectionpump  probably will not bring fuel up from th=
e tank.    This started as a Brainteaser for Mark Shepherd.  And how about =
smoky yunik and the straight  8 ???   -----  on a OVAL track rotation does =
make a difference. LOOK at Reno air racers, it makes a difference which way=
 a Bearcat propeller turns.Radials can be had right of the shelf with eithe=
r rotation.             Hagar.
