    All right I'll bite...

    Where did you get those? I thought that website was gone forever (assuming of course this is the package with all the racers from the 1929 Schneider Trophy race, complete with scenery and AI racers)

    I've always thought the Supermarine Rolls Royce S6 surpasses it's younger brother,....the Spitfire......in aesthetic elegance. NOT that the Spitfire is any wall flower when it comes to looks.......
