- Motorcycles: 2 Stroke Machines
Castrol R is an oil, once much used in motor racing circles, primarily in the heady 60's and 70's. A two-stroke oil, still used in such mundane things as lawnmowers, it was distinctive by its smell; an intoxicating perfume - once smelled, never forgotten. - The Rise of 4 Stroke Motorcycles
In 1966, Suzuki introduced the 250cc Super Six - a mechanical wonder, sporting a twin cylinder two stroke engine, made from alloy and exquisitely built. Six gears, a lubricating system that was a major step forward - two stokes before that, relied on oil being mixed with the petrol, and this was done by the rider, by pouring a set amount of oil into the petrol tank, at the time of filling; Suzuki did away with this y installing a pump on their machines, which injected oil into the fuel, from a dedicated oil tank; no more carrying plastic bottles of oil, to manually mix at fuel pumps. - Headlights in the Daytime
It's the middle of the day, but the car behind me is blinding me with it’s lights blazing in my mirrors. What is this with headlights in daylight? It doesn't seem to be too sensible to me. To say that it helps you see a moving car is surely just not true. If you are a driver and you can’t tell if another vehicle is moving then surely you shouldn’t be driving. True, the emergency services use their headlights to reinforce their blue flashing lights, but with so many other sets of headlights these get lost in the whole illuminated scene, and so they are not very useful at all. - Kill Someone Whilst Driving Your Car Today
How to kill somebody with your car in several easy steps: One, use a mobile phone whilst you're driving. This will help to distract you from the important thing which is driving safely on the road. You will quickly be able to lose control of the car and plow into nearby pedestrians. - Futuristic Car Design
What is in a car? And what is especially in car design? Perhaps you hanker for the newest, latest, sleekest look or perhaps you simply think that futuristic looks are plain odd. Design can also be fuel efficient. Car design teams such as the one in Mercedes-Benz often look for new designs for next-generation appeal. This time around, it is all about fuel efficiency- and new sci-fi looks. Mercedes-Benz took its inspiration from something a little odd this time around- the tropical box fish.
