Gary Bushell has done a video on two of the three new Yaesu RASPer’s.
Bit odd the F150 wasn’t included in the video. Is it not getting released in the UK?

What’s a Rasper?

Ah sorry, meant the new RASP radios. Just grouping them together.
The ASP part of RASP is the noise filter technology they added to the new radios. Or, as Yaesu calls it: " New Evolving Super-DX and Audio Digital Signal Processor"
All of them end with RASP in the model name, hence the little pet name given.

Nice cars in this thread. 
On the Yaesus, rather 9 than 427.
Ahoi

Here, have a couple more. 
And to round things off, a nice video so anyone born in the last 30 or so years can appreciate what us old boring people enjoyed for boring motorsport entertainment back then, vs the cmputer-aided processions of today. 
Apologies, back on topic. I’d imagine the FTX will likely use the RASP/SDX technology? Not sure how much better it is than, say, noise filtering on an 891, for example.
Appreciate the focus on analog and that these things have a data port - so making the 6000 redundant now perhaps?

This year I’ve had the pleasure of being able to drive my step dad’s Morris Traveller a few times. It’s funny seeing the reactions of motorists on the motorway as you pass them!
The Moggy is propelled by a 1.8 twin cam. 
There is room for a turbo, although I haven’t convinced my step dad yet!

Drop in a little Honda DOHC Type R engine, supercharger and some NOS and that thing will be a champion!
Or how about an Allegro estate and convert it in to a drag racer ‘funny car’ or chuck a top fuel engine in it? Shazammmm!!!
Euromillions win? Commission Brabus to overhaul one!
Brabus Austin Allegro SS 1300 Superleggera with 100% dysentery brown velour interior by Bertone anyone?

I think after all of the work squeezing the Mazda engine in, it won’t be repeated in a hurry!
When I drove the car last, I triggered a check engine light, presumed due to driving it on the motorway from cold. The code was cleared via the OBD port. I wonder how many Moggies have an OBD port?!

That was probably the car saying to you “where’s my engine gone!?”
Slam it, toss on a few 20" deep dish chrome spinners, air suspension, wide arches and supercharge it! Megamoggy!
