I used to think that 'serviceability' meant stripping a formula car and rebuilding its major components inside two weeks.

More like doing the same to a jeep, then reassembling it, all in 4 minutes (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gD78rTF0Rjo).

That's really something. When I was in the Army Cadets back in the mid-'50s I was pretty good at stripping and reassembling a Bren gun, but this takes it to a whole other level. :D

That leaves me pretty confused... how do you pop a rad out without dumping coolant? I didn't see any wiring harness plug/unplug... pretty damned impressive.

Yeah, I thought the same thing. It looks like its a custom setup (fuel, wiring, etc :eek:) but think its pretty trick to have a vehicle customized so you can do that.
