I saw a plumbing/drain company truck the other day with the registration "SH11 JOB", the second "1" being edited into a "t" with screwheads.

oxbrain posted:Close. Bias ply tires were poo poo, but the culprit here is the poo poo metallurgy and steering design. Everything then used kingpin steering, which is bulky and weak. Positive camber puts the contact patch of the wheel under the kingpin, reducing the torsional force on it(and the bearing) and reducing or eliminating bump steer. Wagons had been using this trick for centuries.

My catchall has always been that if it can fire the main gun while moving, it's a tank, if it's meant to be stopped and used as a field gun, it's an SPG.

poo poo happens. But that one was the driver's fault. Sometimes mistakes get you killed. If you're going to teach people only one sentence to prepare them for driving, that's probably a good choice.

Time attack is no different to hillclimb (well, I guess you could argue that it's easier to get back to the start), I really can't understand why anyone questions whether it's a "legitimate" form of racing or some poo poo like that. Lots of competition is done on time vs time rather than wheel to wheel, why is it time attack that gets everyone bent out of shape? Also, Saab B204-powered Astra, anyone? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/astra-gsi-saab-turbo-conversion-not-vxr-sri-gte-rs-/230869090202?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item35c0debf9a

Honestly, if I lived somewhere that was into halloween costuming as much as most of the US seems to be, I'd be knocking up things like that for my friends' kids. The trouble is, they've spent all that effort building it, but it'll never actually go castor-to-castor with a Maclaren or a Baby Jogger. Pointless ego-massaging.

[redacted] Yeah, I missed on that one, might as well admit it. Will try harder next time. Also, just so people don't think hillclimbing is averse to weird poo poo:  Edit: Should have said, it's a Farley Mk2. Apparently quite effective, but good lord it looks goofy.

Cakefool posted:The 2CV however, is badass & can take an ungodly amount of abuse, giving out hippy-choking clouds of smoke doing so. It's the only vehicle I've heard garnered literally no benefit from anything better than 2-star petrol back when you could still get that poo poo. Actually, the hippy-choking clouds of smoke were either Gauloises or the heater tubes being alight.
