Actually there are still 120,000 Purple Hearts still left from the 500,000 massed-produced for Operation Downfall (Japanese Mainland invasion). They have even sent them directly to Iraq and Afghanistan so they can be handed out on site if one is awarded. Pretty amazing that 70 years later we still haven't come close to awarding the amount of purple hearts the U.S. expected during X-Day.

Hey TRG! We at /r/USCR and /r/WEC are loving the increase in interest with reddit and the sportscar community!

My question, how much support do you get from Aston Martin? As far as technical side of aero/engine/etc?

Well it took them 2 weeks to find something lost for 30 years, what if we give them 4?

Wow, fantastic photo. Speaking of that wind tunnel, its the only rolling one in the U.S., correct? How far ahead to you have to reserve it for, and are the costs mind-boggling to use it?
