The mechanic takes off the wheel, and when he goes to retorque the wheel, the whole car flips over and slams on its roof. Very nicely done, and very realistic. I have it in my files, but don't know how to post it. It used to be a URL. A few weeks back at Lime Rock, I was surprised to see far, far more 18V impact drivers in the pits and garages than air versions. I remember seeing DeWalt, Milwaukee, and Makita, with about 75% DeWalt. There were a mixture of teams, ranging from Joe Gibbs, Roush, and various factory (Subaru, Acura, VW, BMW, MINI, etc...) road racing teams, to privateers with open trailers. The use of cordless drivers was pretty universal. My little 14.4v Bosch 1/4" impact driver has enough torque to remove the lug nuts on my truck. Avoiding tripping over air hoses in the pits would definitely be a good and handy thing. And charging the batteries is a whole helluva lot quieter than running a compressor. -- Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is a nobler art of leaving things undone.
