Autosport Show 2015 pics

A few pics of random things that caught my eye at the Autosport show at the NEC yesterday. I just like stuff you don't see every day. Random facts: the two magnetos on the top fuel car fire about 1/2 degree apart and churn out 44 amps each. One of the two fuel lines runs continuously.The other has a spring which opens part way down the run as the fuel pressure goes up.
Cheers
Mike

That's pretty clear ----
The pistons/rods picture is interesting - are those aluminum keepers at the ends of the wrist pins? The way the oil rings cut into them - that catches my eye also.
Thanks for posting those pictures!
