Hey Guys I know some of you frequent our board so I wanted to give you all a heads up, I have started a new forum for us Akron area guys.Akron racing.com which we used was having issue and the owners never use the forum so getting issues and things resolved took for ever.So now I have taken it upon myself to start another board and it will be located at AkronRacing.net.I am hoping it will run alot smoother and have less down time with a owner of the board actually using it.Stop in and sign up if you like.

Thanks

My car will up tomorrow, I'm in BFE Indiana. I'll be up with my daughter on Saturday.

Were you parked along the fence and 601 I would assume around the score boards

If the plane moved forward at all, the treadmill didn't move fast enough. I interpreted the question to mean that the treadmill matched the planes forward speed no matter what. The plane would not have moved if the treadmill was capable of going infinitely fast (as I interpreted it). The real world version, yes the plane flies. My hypothetical and currently impossible to implement interpretation - Its still on the ground with overheated wheel bearings!

Wrong HOt the plane doesnt get its forward speed from its wheels it gets it from the prop that is creating thrust so I dont care if you hooked the treadmll up to the shuttle its still taking off.for what you are tring to say to work you would need a head wind that matches the movement of the plane so if takes 25 mph of thrust to take off then a 25 mph headwind would theoretically keep the plane stationary but with the loft created by the head wind going over the planes wing surfaces the plane should still leave the ground and fly but not move.THE GROUND MOVING has no effect on a planes movement

The plane's takeoff speed was 25.

 

 

Considering a Truck can accelerate faster than a plane to 25mph, the treadmill was actually going faster than the plane. It still took off, which kills the arguments about the plane's speed vs treadmill.

 

I think one problem that people are having is that they INTERPRETED the question to mean that the plane would be held stationary as part of the experiment. Unfortunately, that's wrong. The components of the experiment were: 1 Plane in takeoff procedure, 1 Treadmill acting in opposition to the plane's forward movement. That's it. You cannot interpret or apply meaning to an experiment or you skew the results. You have to run the test as designed. I'm sure peopel will start saying they should have kept the plane stationary, but that's not how the question was worded. If you try to keep the plane stationary, you're applying your interpretation to the question and FORCING the results to conform to your preconceptions. That is NOT science, it's politics.

It wouldnt matter if he accerated the truck to 100+mph the plane uses thrust from the proppeller to make it move and fly so it doesnt matter what the ground is doing it will still propel itself and take off... the planes wheel speed will just increase compared to the conveyor belt ex:25mil take off speed + conveyor belt speed 100mph so the planes wheel speed is 125 mph yet the actually planes speed is still 25mph... its simple Now throw a 25mph tail wind at it and it wont take off until the plane speed reaches 50mph

LMAO take yours to the track and spray it on the flash of the convertor right out of the gate and see if you DRIVE IT HOME.I thought my shit could handle it and I found out different no big deal...shit happens.

Steve If you beat me my car with someone else driving it I would point that fact out but I wouldnt come on here crying and throwing a temper tantrum over it.Damn you act like a 2yr old sometime chill out .....I seen nothing from sam disrespecting you in his post ... obviously Robb played with sam on the highway last night and Sam got him no big deal for gods sake...RELAX

BTW mine will be back out in 2 weeks

We all have fast cars, lets not bash on each other!

I think Old Rambler is having a case of PMS with his car ...Robb will figure it out for ya and you will be back up and running... just hope you arent throwing to much squeeze to it and melted something

this post was Cleveland Racing from Craig himself.....

Yes, I am OK. I want to thank Dave/Ray/Ron/JP/Julia for getting me to the hospital and helping with the police situation. If I forgot anybody I am sorry, I still don't remember much.

I am a little banged up. Doc said I had a mild concusion, got 5 stitches in my head. My shoulder is pretty banged up also.

I have not seen the car, but I guess it is scrap. I might go try to pick it up sometime sunday.

I was charged with "failure to control" thanks to some quick thinking from the random guy that picked me up on the side of the road and took me to the hospital.

I will give more details on what happened after I see the car. If there is a video of this I would love to see it, though I would ask that if possible blur my plate as I don't know if I can be charged with anything further at this point.

As for any I told you so's about street racing. I know...and I am LUCKY to be alive.

Thanks again to those people who were quick to take care of me.

Looks good Anthony :thumbup:

How fast of a car will one need to go? Surely you wouldn't want any 13+ cars up there right?

All cars are welcome I am sure.Its all in fun
