The Torque is a Jeep built completely from base by friend Amit Tomar.
The Torque has a 2100 CC Peugeot Engine, weighs 1 ton, has been built with all the best parts of every jeep and car to make it completely All Weather - All Terrain Vehicle.
Torque has a Snorkel Pipe on the left front side that enables it to be driven inside marshy areas with absolutely no worries of the water entering the engine.
Torque is made of All Terrain Tires which can be further enhanced with Tractor Tires too to make it look even more gigantic.
With a 4 Wheel Drive - Torque can rule in Desert, Rocky, Marshy and normal road conditions. The speed in Normal Road conditions can go upto 80-95 km/ hour without any shake or disturbance.
We had a 4 hour session of offroading and testing the stability of this vehicle in the beach sand.
Lofty Hall, the Godfather of British car mechanics, helping me put in a new headgasket (#2) in my 1971 MGB GT. Or rather I was helping him put it in by staying out of his way.
Lofty is turning 75 next week. He's been wrenching on British Cars much longer than I've been alive. A venerable encyclopedia when it comes to these vehicles!
Friday dumped 2.5 inches of rain on the Speedway. Even this much rain did not stop the true hot rodders from showing up to Vintage Torque Fest
The University of Tsukuba, Japan is the star of the 2011 Campus Exhibition. This institution of higher education has long been associated with the festival, and numerous works developed there or created by its alumni have been showcased at Ars Electronica.
"Talk Torque-2" is a work by Hideaki Kuzuoka (JP), Hiroshi Kasai (JP), Ikkaku Kawaguchi (JP) and Toshimasa Yamanaka (JP).

This is a pair of Bourns "low torque" PDB-241 "GTR" (Guitar Series) potentiometers. These pots are available both with smooth shafts (as pictured here) and with knurled shafts like Gibson and Fender knobs take.
I bring this up because this is essentially the same potentiometer as the EVH "Low Friction" pots. Those are only available (as far as I know) with smooth shafts, which means you kinda have to search around for suitable knobs. I bought this pair to go with my machined aluminum EHC knobs, but I also got a couple of sets of the knurled shaft model.
They've got that same low-friction feel of the EVH pots, but they're $3 each instead of $10 each. Which puts them in about the same price range as the CTS 450G that I'm using now and had intended to use as my standard pot for 2014 (replacing the CTS EP-0086 that I used for the first 20 or so guitars).
I wonder now if I should standardize on the CTS 450G (which has a nice brass shaft and bushing) or the Bourns with its low-friction design? Or should I offer either/or as a no-cost option? I kind of think these would be a poor choice as a Tone control, since a nudge could send you into full-on Woman Tone accidentally. So maybe a Bourns for Volume and a CTS for Tone? Of course, some people may hate having a Volume control that spins free like it's not attached to anything. So many choices.

This school of art and design infused by the pioneering spirit has produced such illustrious media artists as Toshio Iwai (JP) and Maywa Denki (JP). Its history goes back over 30 years, and closely parallels Japan’s rise to preeminence as a technological nation. Plastic arts and mixed media, areas of artistic work and research taken completely for granted today, were opened up at Tsukuba through the establishment of corresponding courses of study. By combining competence in design and engineering, the University of Tsukuba has made a major contribution to the development and propagation of interactive technologies. Since 1996, Hiroo Iwata (JP) has been working in Tsukuba on using digital interface devices as means of artistic expression.
