All,

Drag Racing is on! Start prepping your cars...

I'm still hammering out the details however Friday or Saturday should be a full Race Day of Drags and Autocross.

Cheers,
Ron

I don't believe that works with all "browsers" but I just generally use the * and I believe it's understood, presently 4.9* here but the dew point is -5.5*.

4.9° on a laptop requires using the numbers-lock function and the code so I being a little lazy assume the * will be understood. The lesson is appreciated and noted. It's good for all of us. There's many engineering symbols and such that are available and on a "desktop keyboard" are easier than the effort required on the "laptop keyboard".

The numbers-lock on a laptop keyboard is also a "multi-key" event sometimes. My ThinkPad requires an FN+ScrLk and that took me a good while to recall while attempting to respond. Now I believe the MAC keyboard is maybe "simpler" (less key-strokes) but completely different code.

Should have used DDF referring to Delta Degree Farenheit. Whichever eng. unit you use they all equate to the same sum. "Baby its cold outside".
