    Nice. Super clean.

    I noticed it was on a rotisserie too. Also very nice.
    Don't bother me. I'm wasting potential.

    Nice car, just to add, not sure if you know, but it looks like you are using co2 there. If you use it with the cylinder laying down like that you are going to be pulling liquid and not gas. The cylinder needs to be inclined at least 45 degrees or more for proper usage-unless you want liquid and not gas.

    Thanks for the input but we do have Powertank modify the tube in order to lay it flat in the car.
