///let it roar, speaking in ancient tongues

my fave rocket since i was 15 and watching ride-along moto vlogs. 0-60 defined by how well you can overcome physics. an unconventional firing pattern caused by the crossplane crankshaft creates a super throaty gorgeous tone on acceleration and provides more control, at the expense of some power... like you'd need it.
