tipptruck1 Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 I just saw this on a sim racing site. I figured you would like this. Now I know enough about physics. But this is making me think twice. If it was a race car with a ton of down force and a ton of speed I could see it. But a bus. There buses and cars can be at a 90 degree angle. But a American suv will roll at 10 mph. http://autospeed.com...intArticle.html Quote
Super User NorcalBassin Posted March 18, 2012 Super User Posted March 18, 2012 That is crazy looking... nice find. I sure as heck wouldn't want to be riding in there. Quote
Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted March 19, 2012 Super User Posted March 19, 2012 Thats awesome. Quote
scrutch Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 It might not be as wild as you think. If that bus is traveling at a high rate of speed, that maneuver is effortless. Quote
tipptruck1 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Posted March 21, 2012 Yea I know that. But you know how fast a a bus would have to go to stay up. I heard some were a long time ago that cars other then race cars. Will have to be doing over 60 mph on the banking of Daytona. Other wise they will slide down to the apron of the tack. Quote
scrutch Posted March 21, 2012 Posted March 21, 2012 I think a bus could easily stay up on the bank at 65 - 70 mph. Testing is done on that track at UP TO 150 km/h. I think that's a little over 90 mph. Quote
