Video on how RAYS makes dem Rimz. Pretty amazing amount of automation they use.

The micrometer jig was pretty :coal:

, but the rest of that was just basic 3-5 axis arms. Labor is very expensive in japan, so companies tend to automate anything they possibly can.

Essplain please. Just looks like a junked Festiva.

A truck hit them on the passenger side. The door just ripped loose and crumpled into the passenger compartment. If anyone had been sitting in the passenger seat they would be dead.

Usually, the door is supposed to remain in contact with the frame and the whole frame bends, reducing the penetration into the passenger area.

VVV My tires are getting flatspotted just watching that.

The timing is way too advanced. The distributor isn't even bolted down, so it was advancing every time I revved the engine. I still need to make a bracket to properly secure it. Open header, ~2500 rpm idle for unknown reasons.

That cylinder video was awesome, but it didn't really give any sense of what the piston was doing except at TDC.

That's because the piston just goes up and down, not much to see. They were looping the intake and power stroke, which is when everything interesting happens.

I think this is one of those vids where the music actually makes the video rather than distracts from it, if you can sit through the rammstein at the beginning that is.

Except that the video is from the UAE and the song is from india and aside from the people being brown they aren't really alike. :downs:

Does the US jail people for doing this sort of thing? Watching UK programmes like Road Wars makes me want to retain UK cops but have US punishments

People who can afford cars that fast can afford really good lawyers. They'll probably be arrested, and might spend a couple hours in jail, but expect the punishment to be a fine and maybe a couple hours of community service.

That's true, but I still think it's not safe at all. People are going to try to max out their cars. Not much we can do about it. But, if someone merged onto the freeway, and moved over toward the fast lane, that guy would come up really fast at 200mph. I watched someone try to do a fast lane change at 100 and the distance that passed in that ammount of time was significant. Provided they are traveling 65 see a long gap in the rear view, then pull out in the middle of this guys path. Check rear view mirror and this guy is now right on their rear end. Moving out of the way of that would be hard. I can't imagine having to dodge a car that pulls out in front of you at 165 miles an hour.

I am not argueing the fact that this guy is a douche or not, because if I owned one, I would consider doing the same thing. I am just pointing out the risk of doing this.

On a clear night you can see tail lights from several miles away, and it would take a mere 1/4 mile or so to drop from 200mph to 60mph. The person would have to be driving basically straight across the freeway for him to not have time to slow and avoid.

This was dangerous and stupid, but he wasn't really risking anyones life but his and his passenger.

If driving fast is so dangerous, why didn't the officer ram the bmw when it slammed on the brakes? I guess they didn't think he was a big enough danger that he really needed to be stopped, they just wanted to have fun chasing him.

Every time I come across that video, I end up watching it three or four times. What is the criteria for this competition? Is there a set route one must follow in the shortest time or are points awarded based on the maneuvers performed, regardless of the route?

It's called autotest. There is a set route, you have to go through certain gates backwards, forwards, rear wheels only, etc. You are scored based on time, with negatives for gates "missed" and cones hit. It's like autocross meets drifting meets stunt car driver training.

You can use FWD cars too.
