    too dynamical for the tech section.

    as builders of anything, there is always something we need to over do, over compensate...numbers unknown.
    suspension is never ending, fuel changes, tires, wheels, bearing toughness...the metals in the strut towers, on and on and on.

    NIST has an interesting article:

    imagine not only knowing the basics of what spring to use for the weight, but the forces of all the metal surrounding it, beyond G...make changes to gussets, and framing...on and on.
    now that would be precision.

    I took in a jap tin can, way off the real world. Even the hot rod gurus have suffered. When a rocker panel is a beam etc etc.

    it is funny, I am listening to edmund fitzgerald song, coincidentally.....the big boat that broke in half.
