Lowclock posted:Do you know what Dynamat is for? In case you weren't sure, this is a rhetorical question, and the answer is no. Raising my old post a bit but yes it was confusing, to clarify: the terrible thing isn't the use of it. It's the abuse of it. Progressive JPEG posted:i totally agree, it's way more effective to treat the deadening material (dynamat or otherwise) as an ingredient rather than the sole solution. adding something to absorb the noise would be incredibly more effective, likely with less added weight to boot Basically this, coating every metallic surface with the stuff achieves little extra benefit over treating key areas (like where speakers are)

I was going to agree with veedub until you posted this. The posted picture looked like it needed some professional TLC on the paint, but would've looked better for less money than respraying.

That video makes me really angry. If people want to be idiots with that on private property or whatever let them do it. Hell, I'll be the first to laugh and say it serves them right if they get maimed. But that poo poo doesn't fly on public roads. How the hell did they pull that off without being beaten half to death by the local police.

Jesus Christ, that dude legit scares me. I love that he manages to get pissed off at the car for him being a huge loving idiot. I was kinda disappointed he didn't go through his sunroof when he jumped on it though.

My one theory on this is that he accidentally wrecked it into the fence, and rather than have his insurance go up, he's beating the piss out of it to dump it someplace to make it seem like it was stolen, joyridden, and then trashed. That or crystal meth.

I'd have been on the phone with the cops and a cab service about 0.5 seconds after he started jumping on the hood.

In the end those people get back in the car with him behind the wheel driving it with a completely smashed windscreen.

I'm pretty sure that when the manual says not to park with only part of the tire on the curb, this isn't the implied solution:

Pretty sure they're speaking spanish in that video, so guessing this is from Mexico or South America... I think cops in Spain would have shown up to this kind of thing.

It IS Spanish, but the accent doesn't match Mexico. I'm almost sure it's Argentina, but it could be many places in South America. In Mexico cops would've been all over that for the bribes they could've extorted.

Someone smarter please chime in, but my impression is that torque isn't the issue at all--that car has neither the mass nor the contact patch area with the ground to pull that tree's roots out of the ground.

Well, you have to have a balance of both. All the contact patch and mass in the world won't help if you have really tall gears and keep stalling the engine. Little cars don't have much of either.
