I like the idea of the v8, but that render was hideous. Whether old or new, black plastic body cladding looks terrible. Why would someone spend countless dollars to add that shit to a handbuilt car?@Westy skip to 15:00
Yes, yes it is. I still want one!!!Is that Marc's bike company?

Planes are designed to handle lightning strikes. The High voltage will travel around the outside skin of the airplane. I have been on a flight that got struck during a landing. Everything was fine.
Lightning is fickle, so it can vary anywhere from nothing, to "significant". Composites tend to get "explody" if they are the exit point, and there can be anywhere from minor to major melting damage done to aluminum surfaces. Avionics systems are generally very well protected from that sort of thing, though I have seen lightning magnetize parts, and this can throw of some of the older navigation equipment, as they are very sensitive to magnetism.
Hilarie and I were on an Aer Lingus flight over Long Island that got hit by lightning. Hella bang, but no notable side effects (Mid 1980s, maybe?).Lightning is fickle, so it can vary anywhere from nothing, to "significant".
