Why Automotive Crash Tests Are Misleading

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

Anna Disney

Crash tests are conducted in the United States by the NHTSA (the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). The tests are known as the NCAP (New Car Assessment Program). They entail crashing a car head-on into a fixed barrier (the equivalent of a brick wall) at 57 km/h (35 mph). The cars are mounted on a rail-type system, and the two front passengers are instrumented dummies with sensors attached to different points on their ‘bodies’ which permit the work engineers to translate the stress into the effect the crash would have on real human beings.

Honda Motor Co. Ltd. has introduced the HSV-010 GT. This is a image model which will compete in the GT500 class of the 2010 Super GT Series (Japan GT). Honda had also revealed that the car would be based on the canceled NSX production vehicle. Honda’s decision to campaign a non-production vehicle required it to obtain special permission from the Super GT organizers to be exempt from the production homologation requirements for the series.

Ever heard of the brand SAAB? I suppose you have. Ever seen the actual car recently? I suppose you haven?t. Neither have I. But what we do know of Saab is that GM owns the brand and due to the recent global economic crisis, GM needs to unload its under-performing brands from its stable and like its other Swedish counterpart Volvo, which is currently owned by Ford, Saab needs to be sold off to someone who is actually crazy enough to take control of it. Now why do I say crazy in this context?

Many drivers think they can do without buying an extended auto repair warranty.

Motorcycle Goggles - To Buy Or Not to Buy, That is the Question?

Sunday, March 14th, 2010

Theo Pape

It’s a question that every classic motorcyclist is likely to have asked during their riding days: should I buy a pair of goggles? And in answering the question we have to consider what it is that we are trying to get out of the experience?

For many of us, the point of purchasing an old cycle has a lot to do with nostalgia. A chance to relive the glory days when rock ruled the airwaves and roll ruled the tarmac. And it therefore becomes necessary for us to recreate that experience as authentically as possible.

Sunday, March 14th, 2010

Theo Pape

The term ?mod? is perhaps most appropriate when used in the context of vintage Lambretta or Vespa scooters, as it could just as easily be short for ?modification?. ? And there are an abundance of different modifications that can be prefabricated to these vehicles. But which are the most essential?

1. Scooter Mirrors

Synonymous with classic scooters is the iconic image of an old Vespa or Lambretta loaded up ? almost precariously so ? with enough mirrors to fill a medium-sized house. Legshield mirrors and handlebar mirrors are the most common types.
