Nice! Thanks for posting this video. It is very interesting, especially the T-Bird engine with the black exhaust manifolds. I have always seen them painted gray. Jag

Quite a few years back, my nephew had a summer job at one of the big three test tracks. They wanted the young guys as drivers as they could stand to and would hit the rough parts of the track. I think they've all gone to automated testing now.
