Just a WAG (wild ass guess) Spin them at the same speed and see which one spins longest. One is bound to have more mass around the outside and therefore spin longer/faster (the ice skater phenomenon...arms out slow spin arms in fast spin. same weight etc.) I'd say gold would spin longer. Or am I way off base? Ric Bergstrom Richmond, VA 1973 Midget 1275 '88 240 Volvo '92 F150 1974 Midget 1275 (currently in many little boxes) Central Virginia MG Classics |
