747's are RICE. Wonder how much horsepower those stickers all over them make?

Yep, the ORIGINAL park-bench wing and quad fart pipe-equipped machine...LoL

Fine, you want perspective, look at something called muons. Yes, I spelled that correctly, and you can see the wiki on it here. They're so fast that the effects of time dilation in special relativity and space-time are a factor in how long they exist. MWahahahahah!

Yes, I'm changing my major from EE to Mad Scientist.

Yeah, thats all well and good, but if a Corvette zoomed by one going 200 MPH, and just when it got to the edge of our galaxie, the muon side stepped the clutch could it .... oh never mind

But is it relevant to top fuel dragsters and 747's and of course is it ACCURATE, lol ?
