Might be neck and neck with "Central Coaster tried to kill me!"
Cant find it...Apparently CC was kidding around and told some guy his car would stop better with his braking system filled half and half with water and brake fluid.
The guy actually did it and took 'er for a spin
ill never forget that one.
Aww sh*t - you mean I shouldn't have done that? I thought my brakes felt a little sloppy... Luckily going half/half on motor oil water is a well documented recommendation. In fact, i think I'll head out to the garage right now and fire her up!
Same thing with merry-go-rounds. The outside seats/animals travel much farther/faster since the circumference of the circle is larger for them and therefore go faster to make the same turn in the same amount of time the inside seats do.
your outside tires travel much farther in the turn and therefore get out of sink with the inside ones.
This is why the outside horsies are for Vette drivers, and the inside horsies are all mustangs.
Finally a serious post in the C4 forum. The problem is, you probably didn't have the weight distributed correctly. Next time try it with someone sitting in the passenger seat or sit right in the center of the car on the center console.
