Feedback loops carry information, not energy or power (unless that energy or power is used to carry information). It's a controls engineering term.

"A feedback loop of more power"...really? That's ridiculous. It can absolutely be dumbed down. The original post had a better explanation of a turbocharger than that.

That sounds like a terrible autocross experience. I've autocrossed all over the place, and trust me, regions like that are not the norm. They do exist, but the overwhelming majority exist to create a fun, safe, welcoming environment to race your car in.

This did not answer any of the questions posed in the OP. This would also carry more merit if you didn't spend the entire first paragraph misusing as many engineering buzzwords and pseudo-technical terms as possible and cramming them into an incoherent mess. You might impress some folks, but you're making a fool of…

They actually do this if I recall correctly. It's either after the race or while the cars are in parc ferme, the ECUs are removed and tested.

Without making battery swapping commonplace, a standard like you're describing makes no sense. There would be no incentive to standardize. If Tesla gets this battery swapping thing down, THEN and ONLY THEN will it make sense for other electric car manufacturers to standardize their battery packs. If the infrastructure…

I guess the good grass cover? Slick wet grass prevented it from digging in and catching an edge...?

I want one so bad, but I want them to fix the headlights! They probably will eventually, right?

What are you, the supercar police? You're responsible for like, half the replies in this thread...

Seriously. He had his seat belt off and kind words ready before the car even landed. That guy is more composed than the driver. Way to go.

Somebody tell me what this oddly suggestive part of the hull is for? Always wondered this...

I think we've got a COTD already?

The intent isn't that we all start putting F1 engines in our cars or that the engines produce too much pollution to be practical. The hope is that the technology developed in F1 by the best engineers with the most money, largest motivation to succeed, and no market constraints will trickle down into consumer cars.…

Actually, the great majority of the lift generated by a wing is newtonian. Regular old transfer of momentum due to the angle of attack.

Is that truck flipping over in the 48-51 second range, distant right hand part of the video? Dang...

Yeah, it's Corpus Christi. There's a huge argument going down on the 361 Imports facebook group about it right now. It's pretty sad. It's probably going to end in a fist fight between two "car crews" at some cruise or meetup.

ummm, thanks for the condescending correction to my timid answer.

From what I understand, it makes them more stable at high speeds. All the Texas Mile bikes had ridiculous stretched swing arms.

Looks very Local Motors Rally Fighter-esque....which is not a bad thing. I like it.

This! Thank god you didn't end up with the F10. That lineup up blows my mind. It's as if your father was looking for the worst three cars of the era. Troll dad?
