Title: Re: Avoiding target fixation... Post by justin_o_guy2 on 11/13/10 at 06:38:03 AAaaand I went to see just what a Stag is. It made the 50 worst car list. |

Title: Re: Avoiding target fixation... Post by mpescatori on 11/13/10 at 15:31:18 Depends who wrote that list. To some, the Chevrolet Corvair is one of the 50 worst cars, sooo dangerous with that 6 cylinder, air cooled, turbocharged engine fitted on the rear axle. Uh... wait a minute... 6 cylinder, air cooled, turbocharged engine fitted on the rear axle... ...Porsche 911 Turbo, anyone ? See what I mean ? ;) |

Title: Re: Avoiding target fixation... Post by mpescatori on 11/15/10 at 00:55:33 In them ol'days, not one single american car was well thought out in terms of chassis, brakes nor suspension. It wasn't by chance that US racing was ni a straight line or around in circles for ... how many years? before you guys realized cars can turn right, too. I still have a pretty old Corgi paperback, called "sports cars of the world", according to the author, racing driver Paul Frere, even a 1966 1600cc 126bhp Alfa Romeo sedan could run circles around a 1966 muscle car, provided there were no straights longer than the 1/8th mile. http://www.dadedepo.altervista.org/Giulia_file/giuliaa.jpg http://imcdb.org/images/190/485.jpg Alfa Romeo, monocoque body, DOHC aluminium engine, independent rear suspension (DeDion) with coil springs, 5 speed gearbox and 4 wheel disc brakes, radial tires. Muscle car, body on ladder frame, OHV iron engine, live rear axle with leaf springs, 3-speed gearbox, drum brakes (front discs opional), cross-ply tires. (I personally remember front disc brakes and radial tires becoming an option only around 1969 and offered as standard on some "sports packs" in 1971-73) Of course, we can leave out the puny Alfa and look ad Italian muscle cars of the era, but it would be a no-contest. Or, we could look at luxury sedans of the day, and compare a Citroen DS with a Buick of the same year. http://www.lanciaflavia.it/public_old_foto/img-1228685372.jpghttp://www.longstonetyres.co.uk/image/longstone/DS%20Rallye%20Yacco.jpg Just to say, "animals" from different continents will evolve in different ways. 8-) |
