There are some cool things you can do with front-mounted fins.
Makes perfect sense, thanks for sharing!
I’ve known the basic rules of trailering for a while now, but I never understood the exact physics behind why they’re so important. This demonstration helps a lot.
Logical conclusion: All crowd hungry Mustangs are towing improperly loaded invisable trailers.
I love this because I imagine that he was just tossing and turning in bed seething about this and then finally leaped up, cast aside his absurdly long stocking cap, and tweeted this out before collapsing back into bed.
It’s hilarious that Trump accused Hillary for ‘not having stamina’, while he couldn’t stand for 60 minutes of a debate without panting, sweating, and sniffling, while she stood there smiling, fresh as a daisy.
Fuck that noise!
Yeah, it’s pretty obvious what’s going on here. Since they apparently dyno a lot of Fords, they should rename their dyno the EgoBoost.
Yeah, their dyno is reading way high. Maybe they forgot to apply an atmospheric correction factor? Either way, there’s no way GM and Ford are undertaking these cars by that much. BMW? Maybe. American manufacturers are generally spot on with their claimed numbers.
Electrical engineer with 12 years of automotive engineering experience here. Everything mentioned in this article is absolute bullshit. Yes, on your daddy’s 86 toyota celica this may have been how you installed your sweet new tape deck, but in today’s cars solder is a TERRIBLE idea. All systems today are very…
That’s interesting; If your friend wants to speculate about possible Apple Car turn indicators, I’d love to talk to him.
They are working on something of their own. They’ve been trying to hire a variety of automotive talents in a way that indicates that they are indeed developing some sort of vehicle themselves, not just autonomous systems. Earlier this year, they contacted a friend of mine and asked if he had any experience with…
A professional athlete is paid based on the TV and ticket revenues he generates for the company why shouldn’t an engineer be paid based on the bottom line impact he makes? Remember the athlete is just an employee. Without the brand, the league, the stadium, etc he is even less able to generate income than the…
Think of it like this: A shock absorber doesn’t really care about the forces on the suspension as a whole (other than in McPherson strut setups, which aren’t common in offroad applications), it’s only concerned with damping the motion of the spring. An offroad shock has the freedom damp motion over a very large…
This. They all slip like crazy and rob all kinds of power.
I think what they are trying to say is that with three clutches, you can have 3 gears engaged at the same time. So the current gear, one higher, and one lower. This way, the trans is as ready for an upshift as it is for a downshift.
The camber tolerance on a W12x35 at that length (25m wide) is over an inch, jfc
