Radio Control Dukes cars
Hobie Hartkins and one other reacted to Jim85IROC for a topic
Well, Roscoe's car is done(ish)! I still need to paint and install Roscoe and I think I'm going to swap to the larger "sheriff" decals on the fenders and quarters, but otherwise, it's done! The windshield is thinner than I'd prefer, but it seems to look good. Hopefully it holds up. I don't love the large wheels and low profile tires, but the center caps help sell it. Down the road I may design wheels that use the VTA style tires. A nice pair!2 points -
Air raid A farthing was worth 1/4d, i.e a quarter of an old penny when there were 240 pennies to the pound. The British Farthing ceased to be legal tender on December 31, 1960. Even the Irish Farthing was phased out before I was born, so I don't have either. I do remember the post-decimal 1/2p or ha'penny which was in circulation until the end of 1984, but I don't think I have any.2 points

From bbc.com/news: What happens in an implosion? When a submarine hull collapses, it moves inward at about 1,500mph (2,414km/h) - that's 2,200ft (671m) per second, says Dave Corley, a former US nuclear submarine officer. The time required for complete collapse is about one millisecond, or one thousandth of a second. A human brain responds instinctually to a stimulus at about 25 milliseconds, Mr Corley says. Human rational response - from sensing to acting - is believed to be at best 150 milliseconds. The air inside a sub has a fairly high concentration of hydrocarbon vapours. When the hull collapses, the air auto-ignites and an explosion follows the initial rapid implosion, Mr Corley says. Human bodies incinerate and are turned to ash and dust instantly.1 point

They were trying to dive 3,810m (12,500ft) beneath the ocean in a submersible that the owners didn't bother get certified (many say it would've failed) because there was a queue of people willing to spend $250,000 each to do so. Carbon fiber and titanium are strong materials, but the pressure at that depth is enormous. It's estimated that the sub imploded at a depth of 3,500 metres (11,483ft) - that's still over two miles straight down!1 point

It was Swamp Molly where it blew up? Thanks Skipper. I thought it was a Georgia ep. That's twice in one week I've done that. I thought Cooter went through the door with the motorcycle on a Georgia ep but it was Luke's Love Story.. Getting forgetful.1 point -

A-Z Game
Hobie Hartkins reacted to RogerDuke for a topic
Rufus Z Coltrane (I'm absolutely positive the word Vietnam was never mentioned. I don't think any war was specifically. When Boss was dedicating a memorial in "Follow That Still" he and Luke weren't specific. And as we mentioned, the V-word wasn't mentioned in "The Great Hazzard Hijack". The only other one I can think of is "One Armed Bandits" where Boss said he was in 2 wars (contradicted in Follow That Still). Those wars would have been WW2 and Korea. I'm surprised the writers never made Jesse a WW2 vet.)1 point -

Every Duke fan knows about Bo blowing up the outhouse and destroying all Luke's car magazines but here is a scene I was just reminded of, when watching The Return of the Mean Green Machine from season 5. Miz Tisdale was delivering the mail in her dirt bike/sidecar when she came across Enos, who was stranded because mean green had pushed his car in the ditch. Enos hopped in the side car and they didn't get far before Boss and Rosco flagged them down and took the motorcycle. They needed it because Rosco destroyed his sheriff's car with a bazooka. Rosco drove the motorcycle and Boss was in the sidecar firing the bazooka at mean green but had a terrible aim and hit an outhouse. They went back 4 years and used the same footage from Georgia!0 points -
