George has been at it again. When he brought his new "Hot Air" engine down to the shop for a demonstration, we all were very excited untill he carried in a fire exstingisher AND a water hose. Just another affermation as to why we keep George at a safe distance from our race cars.

Here is one of the energy sources for the hot air engine. Homemade sterno!!!. We drained the methanol from my race car for the fuel.

This is the mighty hot air engine and yes it really works.

This small alcohol lamp ended being the perfect btu for continious cycling. The cooling of hot air keeps things in motion.

I was curious about the hose bib. George said it was the perfect bob weight counter balance.

Noel, and all else present, get a lesson in thermodynamics.

Noel asked again, "Now just how does this work?"

George's new engine even gets a nod from the shop pup, Karman.
