Nope that didn't work.  
I'm trying to  link to a U Tube with a Jaguar XJS at Elkhart lake's 4 mile long track.

Yes Robert and I have traded cars and parts over the years. He's a very methodical person who does really excellent work.

Thank you, Yes it is.
   I know you're telling me how to do it but I'm such a Luddite, I don't know what you're telling me to do.

Presuming you are on a computer . . . 

- go to the top of the page where the URL (a.k.a. website info) is,

- highlight and copy it,

- place cursor where you want to have the link show up and hit Control and V.

It's much cooler to imbed the video.  On YouTube hit the share button.  It has a swoopy arrow to the right and the word "Share".  Then hit copy to copy the url to your clipboard.  Next go to your post and hit the Insert Media Embed button.  It's the one to the right of the picture button.  Kinda looks like a calendar with a plus sign.  Then paste your copied url into the space provided and hit OK.  Pro tip wait until after the ads to hit the share button.

But... but... you put a BBC on Frenchyd's  thread.surprise

Def.a fast car, and they obviously didn't mind throwing money at it. Some of the build quality looks well done, but the hood bludge looks like it was welded up by a high school shop student, and the looks of the front musta been thought out by the same student. But the kicker is - TYE-WRAPS holding a button to the shifter? Come on, guys.

I don't understand it.   If I spent what that BBC cost A V12 would make the same or more power.  
But why BBC or V12? With that much power in a big 4000 pound car?   1000 hp should be in a light little car to use the full potential of the 1000 hp.
