? About clay barring
Claying removes contaminates from the paint. It will be less effective on a waxed car, but still should do some good and because of that there are now little pits in your wax job where the contaminates have been pulled out. The best thing to do would be to wash the entire car with dish soap a...- fluffy

C6 to suck the doors off competition- By Bob Lutz
What does weight have to do with anything? A lighter car will transition better and stop better, everything else being equal. However the SRT corners, transitions and brakes better than the Z06 despite the higher weight. It also accelerates better. The Z06 is narrower, which is an advantage on...- fluffy

C6 Corvette to suck the doors off competition- By Bob Lutz
The XLR and C6 share the same platform. There were rumors initially that the C6 might have aluminum side rails, but those were just rumors, not fact. From Motor Trend: 'David Leone, chief engineer for the Cadillac XLR, wants us to clearly understand that his 330-hp luxury/sport roadster is...- fluffy

C6 Corvette to suck the doors off competition- By Bob Lutz
Too far beyond the realm of believability. A 600hp N/A mouse? On a street car? Come on. It's almost certain that the LS2 engine will pull 400-425hp out of 6 liters, and the LS7 will pull 475-500 out of 6.4 liters with three valves per cylinder, and that's what the GM line has been dancing around...- fluffy

SCLSSRT10's AWESOME "custom" silver SRT-10 (pic)!
Re: SCLSSRT10\'s AWESOME \"custom\" silver SRT-10 (pic)! I knew it reminded me of something, and now I know... it looks like the carbon residue from the exhausts of WWII fighter planes. It just makes the car look powerful.- fluffy

Re: SCLSSRT10\'s AWESOME \"custom\" silver SRT-10 (pic)! WOW!!! One of the reasons I love black is that the reflections hi-light the side cove, while the silver and red tend to look flat... this solves that problem! That's just kick ass! I wonder how it'd look on a red car?- fluffy

C6 Corvette to suck the doors off competition- By Bob Lutz
The great thing about the Viper in the late '90's was the fact that it was the undisputed champion. Now it's in danger of becoming just part of the 500+ crowd with nothing to make it stand out at all. The Z06, the Ford GT, the new supercars from across the Atlantic... the Viper is still...- fluffy

Venom Twin Turbo SRT: 713 rwhp & 757 rw tq
No, I'm proposing that intake pressure is probably something less than atmospheric. Whether it's 13psi or not i don't know. It would be something to measure. That was a mistake I made earlier, but I don't think it really matters. It's the PR that I'm disputing, and not on the basis of VE. In...- fluffy

Something else... it would also be interesting to see before/after A/F ratio graphs. How much power is left on the floor in the stock SRT due to conservative tuning? How much work did JH put into tweaking it? There are too many variables.- fluffy

Venom Twin Turbo SRT: 713 rwhp & 757 rw tq
I'm going to change tack here, since I don't know if the pressure drop across the cylinder heads is linear with respect to the pressure difference or not. However, we do know that the turbo (tries to) maintain a pressure of 20.9# in the intake manifold, so then the question I have to ask is...- fluffy

Venom Twin Turbo SRT: 713 rwhp & 757 rw tq
Raising the volumetric efficiency of the engine is precisely what forced induction does. You cannot just say P=1.4 based on pressures and no other information and be done with it, because that 1.4 ratio is an assumption based on nothing. P is an unknown, it is not 1.4. Your 1.4 number comes...- fluffy

Venom Twin Turbo SRT: 713 rwhp & 757 rw tq
Except that automobile engines don't operate at atmospheric pressure internally, they operate at some lower pressure (depending on engine design, intake, heads, etc.). When the intake valve closes the cylinder has an air charge, but is still at a lower pressure than atmospheric which is why...- fluffy

Venom Twin Turbo SRT: 713 rwhp & 757 rw tq
Miles, it doesn't work like that. Just because a turbo is operating at 40% more pressure than atmospheric says nothing about the density change of air in the cylinders. A massive turbo will flow a much higher volume of air than a smaller one at a given pressure. Without knowing the size of the...- fluffy

Viper vs Ford GT
Mid engined cars very rarely have 50/50. The benefit comes from having the mass of the engine located closer to the center of gravity, making it easier to for the car to rotate quickly which translates into better handling. For example, the Toyota MR Spyder is 44/56, the NSX is 42/58, Lotus...- fluffy
