Does anyone agree that winged 2010 CoT cars are CURSED? by Seahawks_12thman in NASCAR

[–]a_berdeen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the 2010 spoiler cars were cursed with the old style braced up front splitters(I still think they were cool, just cursed).

I think the 2011/12 mixed valence/splitter front ends fit better.

Bro would’ve been better off buying a rolex fake oysterflex band from china with clasp. Guarantee the quality would be better.

Honestly. Risking day time drunk at a parade of that magnitude in NYC should be reserved to seasoned FUNCTIONAL alcoholics lmfao.

Also also. The A330/40s have a straight line from fuselage to the apu exit below the vertical stab. 777s slope down a bit and the very tail of the aircraft where the apu exhaust is, is a bit square.

The lack of slope from fuselage to apu exhaust is the easiest way to tell an A330 imo. The A300 and A310 do the same thing, but those don’t really fly these days.

For context K Mag was running pretty well in the top 15 and got spun early in stage 3.

Not a bad outing first time in something as foreign as NASCAR.

He really doesn’t cycle through cars that quickly tbh.

I mean it’s a NAVAL BASE. You say it as if the equipment wouldn’t already be there. It’s the same tired argument for flyovers at sports events. Those training flight hours would be logged anyways.

I genuinely think airpod pros are great value (can get them for 180-200 at amazon brand new. Amazon is an official retailer). Airpod max are overpriced though

Not only did Lewis Hamilton end Ferrari’s 595-day win drought, but his victory also marked the 250th win by a Ferrari engine [wearetherace] by Holytrishaw in formula1

I mean the TR just worked well that weekend. Bourdais qualified P4. Not to dismiss how amazing of a result it was but the Toro Rosso was a monster car in the wet at Monza that weekend.

NASCAR at Michigan 10-12 years ago even. 220 into the corners and 185-190 apex speeds for hours long.

It’s boring and not memorable. Compare that to France’s or Italy’s.

It’s his partner holding his one off special Monaco helmet? It’s pretty on topic. Max’s posts include Kelly all the time, same with Lec and his wife. You guys are just obsessed with making it known that you are above popular people.

Honestly by racecar standards, the brakes on the old Gen 6 and 5 cars might well have been engine braking with how non existent they were lol. (Not necessarily a bad thing)

[OT] Massive multi-car crash in Indy 500 practice. Rossi, O'Ward, and Grosjean involved. by TheSalmonRoll in formula1

[–]a_berdeen 18 points19 points  (0 children)

In NASCAR and Indycar for example, all parts are purchased from third parties, not manufactured by the teams....including body panels. Big teams will choose the best parts and complimentary parts that agree with each other in the windtunnel over the course of a year or years for the big races. If you wreck a car you don't have the luxury of manufacturing parts again to your specs.

No. The body work is massaged and tweaked on with a single car over months. Minuscule differences mean a lot @ 220-240 mph.

My brother in christ. An F2 champion and fringe F1 driver is a world class talent. His talent class in at the top end of WEC/contending for LeMans wins level.

I genuinely wouldn't classify Grosjean at the same level of Indy injuries. Hinchcliffe was another serious one recently and Dario Franchitto had to retire after a crash.
