Move into the boat and claim it as a residence for taxes. It would be harder to evict you from your home to give her a toy I would think. If the...
I would just shanghai her lawyer, then toss him overboard tied to an anchor. Or sell him in the dr.
You said no hp or power is available at zero rpm, only torque. We aren't talking about the power being fed to the motor, we are talking output. If...
With r/c cars back in the day, I have have changed brushes, turned comms. Never messed with brush holders, just the brushes and springs. Had you...
Outside of engineerland, quite a few people are coming to this way of thinking. You said hp is power, and power is zero at zero rpm in this...
If there isn't power at zero rpm, then it wouldn't have the power to start turning. So, torque must be power. If hp is zero and torque it at max,...
I agree 100%. Plus I drive a big old diesel truck with about 600lbs of front bumper. Left lane, cruise set 10 over, move it or splat. They all...
That's cool. Hopefully the repair work is minimal and you can be enjoying it shortly.
I can understand that. Upsidedown cake=good, upside down boat=bad. You said the motor was rated at 10hp, is that peak or hp at cruise or top...
I'm with you about having a diesel genset. It adds versatility. The amount of solar required interested me. I was thinking a full canopy worth of...
I didn't know if Norseman intended to keep a full array of batteries, use less and solar supplement, or full solar with a minimum of batteries. Or...
Lots of variables, power, speed, light, cloudcover. I would consider it good if it cruise for an hour or two, then recharge a small battery bank...
Cool beans, glad you found a neat project. I'd be very interested in knowing how much sq ft of solar panel it would take to power something like...
In an automotive application, what is going to make a vehicle move better, good hp at one set rpm, little or nothing before and after, or a lower...
You would be surprised how many there are running around Dallas/Fort Worth. There are more than 20 guys on ricekiller that are over 1000hp in...
This is back to my earlier point about the hp wars and manufacturers raising rpm to make hp, and moving torque to high to be useful. Your engine...
How many hours is it good for? Neat looking little boat. I have wondered about how an electric would work as a tender. I'm not fond of having...
I didn't state that it would be the maximum that either could produce, but yes it is fairly simple to build a 300hp inline 4, and that same 300hp...
Nope, not me. I never really did the forums thing with my fast stuff. People don't need to know what I'm running. Anyways, Jerry Reed is the snowman.
I had read that it held a record as fasted stock, or showroom stock (no tire changes) but maybe I was misinformed. The vette didn't hook. 1.9 60...
