Drafting is the benefit of air pressure being lessened in car racing. Throughout all car racing sports‚ the use of drafting is incredibly useful. It is the most efficient way to lessen the amount of air pressure working against the vehicle. A force that works against cars in racing is drag. Drag is the force that acts on an object in the opposite direction of its motion. There are two types of drags in car racing‚ friction drag and pressure drag. Friction drag is friction between the surface

Toy cars have been played with by children for many years. Would one wonder the way a model or toy car rolls down a hill? One would think it would be because it has wheels‚ this is true but there is more to a car rolling downhill than it having wheels. Gravity is the force that is keeping all things on the ground.

Buying a Car Choosing between buying and renting a car can be hard‚ because both have their pros and cons to them. Personally I would buy the car because you can do what you want with a car that you own. There are different factors you should look at when deciding which one you should choose. You should look at upfront cost‚ monthly payments‚ and vehicle return process. Upfront cost is a good factor to look at when you are deciding whether to buy or rent a car.

With such an incredible long term saving potential‚ the hybrid car is surely an economically sound choice. In addition‚ another economical factor that hybrid cars have is a technological mechanism known as "regenerative braking". When a hybrid car brakes; the motion of the wheels against the braking mechanism

The carburetor would flood just about
