Ahh, if only...

Imagine taking 50 engines; a few little ricer 4 cylinders and rotary engines for the high notes, a few V-8's for that cackle and low end, a few big Diesels for that mega bass, some V-6's and smaller 8's for the mid-range. Mount them all in a four story wall of horsepower, and have a computer control all of their throttles to create Jingle Bells with flames coming out of stub headers and film the thing at night.

Move over Mr. Guy-who-programmed-his-house-to-do-a-light-show-along-with-Trans-Siberian-Orchestra, Begle's Wall of Infernally Combustive Christmas Spirit is on it's way!!!

Har Har Har!!!

So who want's to donate old engines or money?

 

I'd pay to see that.

 

That sounds totally awesome!

Engines dont seem so hard to find. But where are you going to find the 4 story wall?

 

T'was the night before X-mas
and all through the forum
Begle1 was thinking of
musical engines rum a roar rum.

Geico was sad
thinking Begle1 had departed,
but he is back thinking up stuff
that should never be started.

Playing Jingle Bells with tuned engines
may sound silly to most
but for Begle1 it's normal
cause he's from the left coast.

But the idea took hold
and a DTR team started to work
to research the engine thing
down to the last quirk.

The engines were hung
on the wall with great care
in hopes they would start
and sound so fair.

The weight of the engines
had not been taken into account
so the wall fell down
leaving all with self doubt.

You see playing Jingle Bells
with engine is sacraligous to some
so to be politically correct it must not be done.

 

You're quite the poet, Lizard.

 

OK Mr. Geico. I hope this is just aimed at Begle for being a kooky left coaster, not all of us are that way!

Though I could see myself on this team.

 

How about 1 - Formula 1 car singing God save the Queen?

or how about We are the Champions?

Not as cool as the Wall of Infernally Combustive Christmas Spirit... Not nearly...

 

OK - but I tried.

 

That's some fine throttle control there!

 

I'm guessing that those were all computer controlled engine programs. Somebody probably typed those in on a computer or tele-sent them...

 

Well, the 24 valve Cummins engines are drive-by-wire, too...

 

And if you had a 24 valve hooked into a real-time program like EFI-Live you could probably do the same thing.


Hmm... About 50 24 valves could probably make a pretty good orchestra... Cut all the exhaust pipes to different lengths or diameters, like a pipe organ...

 

Where you going to come up with all the money to fund this project Begle?

 

Well, that's where Geico comes in.

He's got an airplane, so I figure he makes bank. Somehow...
