Car Forums ... OT ... And what did Santa Bring You?

[chows4us]

There was a thread in OT about what is said in other Car forums ... its seems to have disappeared with the site change ... anyway, here is the beginning of the Christmas Version ...

Some humorous excerpts (predicted) from car forums OT thread ...

And what auto related gift did Santa bring you for Christmas?

"Dudes, check out my new 4" exhaust muffler ... and only $27.99 on sale at JC Whitney ... whoa, you gotta hear this beast roar"

BMW 7 Series

"I'm so tired of getting Piagets for the holidays ... sigh"

LOTUS

"WOOT! 3 day DE school at Bob Bondurent"

TOYOTA

	LSD - Limited Slip Differential A limited slip differential (LSD) is a modified or derived type of differential gear arrangement that allows for some difference in rotational velocity of the output shafts, but does not allow the difference in speed to increase beyond a preset amount. In an automobile, such limited slip differentials are sometimes used in place of a standard differential, where they convey certain dynamic advantages, at the expense of greater complexity. The main advantage of a limited slip differential is found by considering the case of a standard (or "open") differential where one wheel has no contact with the ground at all. In such a case, the contacting wheel will remain stationary, and the non-contacting wheel will rotate freely– the torque transmitted will be equal at both wheels, but will not exceed the threshold of torque needed to move the vehicle, thus the vehicle will remain stationary. In everyday use on typical roads, such a situation is very unlikely, and so a normal differential suffices. For more demanding use however, such as driving off-road, or for high performance vehicles, such a state of affairs is undesirable, and the LSD can be employed to deal with it. By limiting the velocity difference between a pair of driven wheels, useful torque can be transmitted as long as there is some friction available on at least one of the wheels.

What other forums are saying.... It's funny how other forums actually do say some of those things. I wonder what the stereotypical saying for cayman club is.
