There was a guy at the import car show, over in the kit car shed, selling digidash units and a micro sized car battery. I can't remember who he was, and I can't find his business card.

I'm really interested in those micro sized batteries, and can't find them via Google.

Any of you guys remember seeing him and remember his business name, or any cues I can use to find him?

Funny you should mention that... I am in lust with the motorcycle-powered car they had and took a bunch of pictures of it.

...is on one of the digital dash pictures I took.

I don't remember seeing any other info and I was looking for it.

I'm still circling the batteries. They were so light and small and comparably priced I'm both fascinated and interested and terribly suspicious.

I was hoping to find a web site that gave more info on the batteries, do some web searching about them. And then take a deep breath and maybe buy one or two from you.

I'm the guy who ran into you right as you were closing up btw. You nicely spent several minutes with me explaining the digidash and how it works (I didn't understand it at first), and those micro batteries.

I'd love to see a Fury and or Menace in the flesh. Someday I'll make the trek to Carlisle.

Looks similar, but a couple of those look like front engine cars. The one at Chet's display was mid engined, using a I-4 motorcycle engine & trans with a starter on the rear axle for reverse.
