Rally driver Ola Strömberg drives a Saab 99 in a 1983 race and has engine problems, he has to keep the engine above 5500 rpms at all times or it dies. So he does so, runs the race without letting go of the gas pedal. He's got a mic and keeps narrating camly what he does. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCLgh8sbWXM

Jesus Christ. I thought my Crown Vic was a pain with the CAN, and that thing was simple enough overall for me to work on it (armed with FORScan anyway). It threw U codes that made no sense and didn't affect how the car ran (stuff like "dome lamp grounded" when the interior lighting worked fine, "hood latch open" when there was no switch on the hood, plenty of DDM faults when everything worked, etc). I've seen a Tesla completely shut down over 2 wires pinched between the rear seat bracket and body though. The tech that had to fix it was cussing up a storm; he had to replace the entire LH body harness. Had it been any of the other wires in that harness, he could have done a cut/splice/heatshrink, but CAN wires are the only thing they won't repair off the line. Funny how it took us only a few hours to build the car, but took him several days to tear it back apart. randomidiot fucked around with this message at 12:27 on Sep 13, 2023 |

I was a bit too busy running around doing motorcycle safety/tech inspection. Hopefully the salt is better next year.

Not car related either. Economics video about planned obsolescence. But when this guy started talking about the physcology of objects and owning things was really interesting, in particular when he brought up modern products like smart phones and I realized that's how I feel about modern cars too. And I wonder if I am alone in thinking that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fz68ILyuWtA&t=1094s

I love larger equipment restorations and whatnot, though this might be a function of growing up in a family whose primary pieces of business capital were a gas-powered Allis-Chalmers backhoe, a Deere 440 track-mount with a loader, and a Deere 500c backhoe. 2 of those 3 were older than my dad.

I'm not an AIer so apologies if this channel has been shared before but Street Bandito has been doing an pretty slick tesla-swapped Z build for SEMA with a custom 3d printed all-carbon body. More importantly everyone in the shop has a really low tone chill attitude and you don't have any of the typical youtube stupid poo poo to game the algorithm. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEVdOIv9LVY

meatpimp posted:Regardless of your feeling on Donut Media, this is legit and worth a watch -- I was curious why they didn't just repeat the "horse lifts a weight through a pulley" experiment, I thought I migh'tve missed an explanation but it seems they immediately jumped to their ultimate solution. So it's more like "how to dyno a horse" than "how much horsepower is a horse" Here's a good overview of the "Liquid Piston" "inverted wankel" engine that seems to pop up every year or so. I've looked into it before and have been cautiously optimistic but he points out something I missed - they're using a sealed ball bearing on the crankshaft because there's no other way to do it. Seems like it's going to be pretty limiting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5UOqZn43gY mobby_6kl fucked around with this message at 22:17 on Nov 26, 2023 |

This short film about https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tiyiBOgOtJY It's not just about the cars, but I think it's worth a watch: quote:Wayne is a fixture on the banger racing circuit. Now his son Jai-Dee is nearly 13, his debut race is finally in view. Wayne, a double amputee, is preparing him mentally for the goal ahead and Jai-Dee is feeling increasing pressure to make his father proud.
