Confession: My perspective was intuitive, but not accurate.

F*cking serfs in base models...

I stand corrected.

“Ain’t no way I’ll let somebody go past in a base.”

I guess I’m corrected. It’s hard for me to think of something static as a force, but if the track is redirecting the bus’ motion to keep it going around the center, OK. Now I can be even _more_ pedantic than I have been thus far, and for that, I thank you.

So I read the article and while it’s a little counterintuitive, I think it’s a good explanation. I guess we should start calling centrifuges centripetes? Or are those the creep crawlies with all the legs? So confused...;)

OK, thanks for clarification.

Ah, now that I read the article I get it.

Nope. The centrifugal force is what’s keeping the bus on banked oval. If there were actually centripetal force the bus would fall off the track and move toward the center.

More Unwohlsein than Fahrvergnügen if you ask me. Sie, what I did there?

And that young man grew up to be George W. Bush.

Oops, I meant the Krusty Krab, but otherwise, yeah, same comment.

Do you by any chance work at the Crabby Patty?

I recently was a passenger in a coworker’s white 2013 3 series with automatic tranny. If BMW is still the “Ultimate Driving Machine, I assure you that pathetic POS has NOTHING to do with being a BMW.

Hey, just one question: are we calling it the Fiata yet? I haven’t seen that, but, um...

I like it but I swore off Chrysler products many years ago. :|

Brown? They are sooooo sucking up to Jalopnik.

Obligatory “flew when parked” comment.

I prefer the Outback by a dirt-road mile.

If people really have so much money and so little sense that they don’t run screaming at the absurdity of the “First Edition” stamped on the seats, it really is time to break out the tumbrels. Nope, that’s not a typo.
