You know what?  You are right.  You have legitimate questions.  I don't want to be the board's resident know-it-all a**hole.  Sorry about that.

Sincerely,

Martin

No need to prove that...The Allegheny has a 2000HP advantage over the Challenger.

The 611 and the 1218 again.  I'd really like to see the 611 in motion under its own power again like I did when I was little.
