    Which is better a 17" tyre or an 18" all else being equal

    Greg Locock, what manufactures supply that information? I've tried getting info last year from Falken and Hankook tires but they both told me they don't release that data. I was specifically looking for Temp vs mU, and slip angle vs mU.

    What do you disagree on?

    Front splitter

    Turboted, a splitter does not have to have a full under tray to work. Having a smooth under body and rear diffuser will help each of the aero items work better, but a splitter by itself will make down force. Ivy mike, a splitter is different from a wing. A wing creates lift/downforce from its...

    Twin Scroll Exhaust Manifold Pairing??? Papadakis Turbo exhaust???

    Was the yellow Honda a drag car or drift car? I recall his drag civic to be yellow and his drift s2000 red, so I'm going to assume the stup u saw was on his drag civic. Pairing 1 to 4, and 2 to 3 will decrease turbo spool time (incrasing throttle response). Drag cars do not need throttle...

    CL vs yaw angle

    This is specifically pertaining to ground motorsport vehicles. I'm looking for some data of the amount of down force generated by a front splitter vs the yaw angle of the car. All I have found is the downforce is significantly reduced as yaw increases (due to less stagnation of course), but this...

    What the heck is Systems Engineeing?

    There are BS degrees in Systems Engineering. http://seor.gmu.edu/ George Mason University offers it as a BS and is supposedly a great program. Im sure the location of the school has most to do with that (30 mins away from DC).

    Is engineering boring?

    i started working for a large defense contractor half a year ago. I feel what the OP posted when I'm are given 3 months to do a task that can be done in 3 days. It seems like that is how things are with govt funded projects. I notice the majority of people are IMing, surfing the Internet, or...
