And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Not sure what the purpose of this wheel disc is, but it looks great
Turbofans were an '80s attempt at brake cooling for road racers. Porsche 935s had them at LeMans. As the wheels spin centrifugal force is supposed to draw air across the disc and expel it outwards.
To push air into the brake....(shrug)
