Very cool Roy. I really like the different size on the ship and R2.

BTW, Mythbusters recently did an episode where they put clay on a car and dimpled it like golf balls. Had a significent increase in gas milage. Speed was not an issue so they never really checked it, but I would be interested in knowing if it also improved the aerodynamics speedwise. With gas prices what they are, I would not be surprised if somebody came out with a car that had a similiar surface.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

That's from the "pull and stretch" of the BMP being wraped around the "droid pit".

So, if I take a ball-peen hammer and start dimpling cars, I can tell the owners I'm doing them a favor, and if they don't like it, I can blame Jamie and Adam! Cheesy
