I have a 1994 Accord Coupe...brilliant car...served me well for 4 years with 216k on the clock :]
Haha, mmk. well perhaps I was taught rubbish xD
But a healthy-running engine doesn't put out carbon monoxide, it puts out carbon dioxide, which isn't lethal, but it's not the best, it's what we exhale. it's when the engine begin to run out of oxygen to burn that it begins to produce Carbon monoxide, such as in an enclosed area i.e. a garage. So, when the fuel/air mixture isn't right, yes, it's dangerous, but when you have plenty of oxygen to burn and a good mixture, you should be fine...at least that's what I remember from school.
And so this takes my piss away? cool.

I loved the Juke haha..was uber fun...favorite phone is the Droid, though.

One of my good friends has an S2000...on a nice road (tight curves and long straights) he managed to keep up with an twin-turbo M3 xD
Ahhh...That makes more sense lol It didn't *quite* look like a 944 but I knew it wasn't a 928...Either way, It's a pretty car!
It's Soooooo Pretty! Durrrr...I mean...Hey dude...nice car. But seriously, 924's are pretty nice. Well done

Reason : I was wrong. lol
In the US, the better tires go on the back no matter what because not every boob with a car knows how to control oversteer lol
OK, looks like you're understanding it like said before, you can never entirely remove understeer...it's just impossible. but you can get it to where you corner pretty damn fast without understeering. :]

Look at the second reference. It states it's a fictitious force. i.e. it's something we think is there but actually isn't. I have a college level physics book that states what I am telling you. Centrifugal force is something someone came up with to describe the feeling of being pushed outwards when going in a circle. The actual reason you feel like you're being pushed outwards is explained in Newtons First law of Motion: Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it. That external force is the force of friction between the tires and the road.
There is a limit of how fast you can go around a corner with a car. you will never be able to fully eliminate understeer, but you can do your best to increase the top cornering speed of a car. I suggest playing with Camber, tire pressure, and anti-roll.
The thing people call centrifugal force (actually Momentum, a conserved quantity) acts on all bodies in motion.
The suspension is helping the car go around the corner by taking a portion of the kinetic energy (also a conserved quantity) that the car has and dissipating it by compressing the shocks on the outside side of the car as it corners. The acceleration vector does point towards the center of the circle and the fictitious force is, in fact, centrifugal force.
I've done my best to explain this concept to you...it's something that took weeks of schooling to fully comprehend to a point where I could use it and explain it to people. I hope I helped.
The force that causes the tires to slip isn't a force, but it's called momentum. Momentum describes a moving objects desire to resist a change in direction. When you drive, the car and everything inside the car has momentum. When you turn, the car WANTs to continue in it's straight path but the force of friction between the tires and the road, if high enough, causes the car to turn, but because of its desire to resist change in direction, the car leans and you feel like there is a force pushing you towards the outside of the corner when there isn't. That feeling is what people like to think of as centrifugal force. Now, if momentum is too great, then the tires break the force of traction and you slide. Better?
Mmk. To start off:
-there is no such thing as centrifugal force.
Now that I've told you that, lets get down to business:
Understeer is caused by something called momentum. When you enter a corner with too much speed, the momentum of your car is "breaking" friction and causing the car to slide straight in the corner. The key to proper cornering is limited body roll. The key to limiting body roll is a stiff chassis. Body roll causes weight shifts which disrupt the line that the car was taking. However, from my understanding, a slight amount of weight transfer onto the front tires does help because it increases the force of friction. Hence why if you understeer, you can recover, or at least attempt to, by pressing the gas and brake at the same time. That transfers enough weight to the drive tires so they can "pull" you out of the understeer. And it really does work, I've tried it. lol
Anywho, feel free to roast me. I used my understanding of physics (I'm in school to be a mechanical engineer) to attempt to answer his question.

I'm not personally insulted, I was just trying to say that Not All Christians are dumb animals that follow the latest end-time declaration.
To be honest, so do I, most of the time xD A good part of them are like "ooh, shiny new thing to obsess over!" but those are the people who call themselves Christians but don't live the life. lol
Uhh, You, Sir, have insulted the intelligence of Christians world wide. I'm a Christian and sure as hell didn't believe Camping and I know soo many more like me. Some people believed him, yeah, but that doesn't mean all Christians fell for that one mans idiocy.
What the hell is that?!
orly? The forum removed all but one of my capital letters. lol

Oh, and it's ONE sticker. The ONLY thing I've done to it in the 4 years I've owned it :P

I figured it was about time to post my car She's a 1994 Honda Accord EX coupe, 2.2L I4, f22b1 VTEC engine, putting out 145 HP and 190 ft-lb torque. And she's got about 207000 miles on her.

I think it was pretty simple...but I'm not sure as I didn't code it...The downside to it was that you had to map your controls to the mouse, iirc...I'll PM him about a DL for the program...
