Default RE: Engine rotation?

I figured you were from the UK using the term "anti-clockwise" instead of "counter-clockwise" which means if you stood on the primary side it would be turning the opposite of anti-clockwise.

Thanks. Glad you like it.

I am using Macromedia Flash for the animations, with a little help from Illustrator for some of the drawings.

That is sweet!

Anyone else notice the little puffs of exhaust on the Twin Cam?

Added it to the Christmas list, for sure!
