From later on in the restoration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7UsKs9b8ltw I drat near lost it when I saw that the wheel crank they use to start the engine is also the steering wheel. Incredible.

Boy that is some Top Gear level of unfunny. Those guys should stick to writing. I found a recent episode of Autoline After Hours pretty interesting if you want to know why VW is so profitable. Also the US emissions control regulation regime is much less corrupt and also more stringent than Europe, which is why other countries will increasingly be adopting US emissions standards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaFP7ZQJa1w Throatwarbler fucked around with this message at 03:14 on Mar 3, 2015 |

Here are some things to watch, but mostly listen to. Turn up your speakers. 599XX Evo at Monza. My absolute favorite Ferrari. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMHsonRxGBo 1995 Ferrari 412, also at Monza. I wish F1 still sounded like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SoZiTxdQyw Mansory SLR. Hideous, but it sounds like a Colombian drug smuggler's go-fast boat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvG0cl5xOOY

Stadium trucks have always been pretty amazing but now they're racing them on a tight road course with added jumps. Looks like a lot of fun to me. Race starts around the 6 minute mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5p_Ho7TqFk

Yeah, the first half of the video reeked too much of "I watched some Chris Harris, James May, and Richard Hammond, I can totally do that!" I admit to being slightly sad that we didn't get a single "mint!", especially when we got to that Ram. I'd have even settled for a "BAM!". Because race

It does have some added difficulty when every turn presents you with the same visibility of the track as when you go down the corkscrew at Laguna Seca

Im just gonna say, im into old cars bunched together with zipties and vice grips as much as the next guy. I drove without a starter in my 88 corolla for a year by only parking on hills. Im sure he was just acting, but I would never sit in the back of a Maybach and call it garbage. When something is nice, its loving nice.

Tommychu posted:Can't say I've heard of a clutch-type LSD in anything 2-ton and up, but I don't deal much in medium duty or off-road equipment, just heavy on-road trucks. We see the odd 2-5 ton but they're few and far between. It does exist for OTR trucks with Meritor's Smartandem system: quote:To protect itself from damage, the diff lock uses a face-clutch mechanism rather than a full spline lock. The clutch allows for safe, smooth engagement even if a wheel is already spinning on ice, but the system will not engage the cross-lock if there is a great difference in wheel speed.

Older airplanes used rotary engines like that. The Sopwith Camel had one and it had a wicked gyroscopic effect: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06tXTyN5sZY
