  7. A few years back .. we decided to go for a summer camping trip to Yellowstone / Grand Tetans. Well the best air fare was to fly in and out of Billings, Montana. From there we decided to drive southwest into Yellowstone. Little did we have in mind was that we would encounter "the most beautiful road in America" according to Charles Kuralt: Highway 212 through the Beartooth Mountains. Great sweeping turns through grand mountain country .. I sure wish I could take on that road in my Seven! Rob

  10. One thing I wish we had .. is a vinyl window label with USA7s.org on it. So that if people have questions about our cars .. we can point them in this direction. And is it about time for a USA7s.org FAQ? Rob

  12. I would like to borrow one .. just to play with it .. and then return. There are two Curta simulators out there. Also the Curta company did make a working cutaway view demonstrator to illustrate how it works. Rob
  13. From a recent eBay auction of a booklet with time tables ... about using the Curta Calculator for Rallying. The booklet went for $42 on eBay. Rob Description: "This 8 & 1/2 by 6 inch booklet is for use with early Rallyes. I used this many times during the 50's & 60's. Gives minutes per mile factors to the sixth decimal place. Accurate to .000005 of a minute. Therefore the maximum tabular error after 1000 miles of rallying is three tenths of a second. Great for use in current nostalgic rallyes Copyrighted by Allan Jay Kalb in 1959. 59 pages." http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/563394867_curta1.jpg http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/2012367744_curta2.jpg http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/850088408_curta3.jpg

  16. From your pics .. I count more than 8 .. maybe 10+? Is the one with the sideways headlights a S1?? Are they skinny and is there any advantage to turning them sideways anyway?? Rob
  17. Congratulations Russ! :hurray: Gotta post a pic here! BTW: Dutton Pics Here Rob
  18. I pulled up beside a 1929 Model A Ford. He said, "Nice Car!" I said, "Nice Car back to you!" He said, "You might as well go first because you are probably much faster than I am!" My wife grinned and waved as we pulled ahead and turned out of the intersection ahead of the bigger classic car. Rob
