Congratulations!
Congratulations!
It’s a shame because there are some dedicated fans and competitors out there. We’re also involved in late model racing (nascar whelen all American) and it’s certainly a test of ones patience. A friend of ours was the track champion at Dominion this year and it was one hell of an accomplishment given the circumstances.…
It doesn’t sound like you’ve experienced the feeling of the front wheels seemingly sucking the front of the car through the corner on throttle, which is exactly what a well done “e-diff” setup like Volkswagen’s XDS can do.
Things are well managed in Wisconsin which is great. Fans support the tracks because the tracks support the fans. Even Road America is great and they’re a bigger ticket stop. Every race I go to there my son gets in free, concessions are cheap, and the schedule is packed with a full weekend of racing. Plus you can pack…
“FWD (in street cars, at least) but it’s never an asset.”
You are so right.
From what I understand, the what helps that track is its close proximity to Hollywood. From what I was told, it’s location makes it an easy place to rent and film at for TV shows and movies. So for my understanding the track is making money as a place to film at as well, which has made it hard to straight up kill all…
The thing is that the “problem” of the front tires doing both steering and accelerating isn’t necessarily a problem at all. You can use it to your advantage, and it’s surprisingly fun when you do.
Yes!
Most of you folks aren’t old enough to remember the original Mini that popularized FWD in the US. My best friend’s Dad commuted in one to the Washington Navy Yard. He chose the Mini because parking was limited and there were some spaces reserved for very short cars, the Mini qualified, but the VW Beetle did not. FWD…
FWD: It stands for Fun-Wheel Drive. Alright, technically it stands for front-wheel drive, but it’s fun-wheel drive…
I did not say “Global Warming” is disproved. I said “man made catastrophic global warming” has been disproved.
I’m perfectly willing to have conversations about what impacts humans could be having on the climate, but they don’t want to discuss. They want to put on their Septa Unella outfit and ring the Shame Bell.
Because the theory has been busted with reality?
Sorry, we are having a good laugh that you guys have been forced to swollow your pride and use “climate change” instead of your original (now disproved) “man made catastrophic global warming” term.
See, man made catastrophic global warming is a myth because it’s so cold outside, and CO2 levels went up but the temperature for the last 14 years has not. Nobody denies the world has been warming up. That tends to happen when the world comes out of an ice age. But you guys keep torturing the English language, since…
Many of these “Warmest year” articles also fail to mention that the “warmest” claim is WELL within the margin of error. Like, many times over. But that doesn’t read as well as “This winter might possibly have been warmer than last year by a thousandth of a degree, but then again it might have been colder”.
Read some of this. Might you be able to find some errors? Perhaps. But you can’t “deny” that there are many, many claims about climate change that, not very long ago, you would have been called a “denier” for challenging, and yet did not come true. But science said so!
Sorry, but every time there is an above-average heat wave, I hear “See, global warming!”, and then the same people scream “Idiots, weather is not climate!” when you get a cold snap.
And all those stupid GOP people will be like: “See global warming is a myth because it’s so cold out!”
