Fond memory...
My uncle built small block Chevy race motors for boats, one of his motors even held a class world record in the 1970's. Fast in his world was 7000 RPM screaming through open headers. He could not understand how a computer could keep up with such a beast. Even when I explained that motor is only really operating at around 115 hertz and computers (at the time) were just starting to crack a billion hertz.
I miss my uncle and his genuine old school knowledge, so icon chosen accordingly.
