If you were a car, what kind of car would you be?

I would like to say my own M4, however one of Wacky Race Mobiles would be more accurate lol.

But in reality it would be one of these lol.

Ford escape! I have a 2020, my mom had a 2005 just traded it in for a 2019 Escape the 05 had over 250,000 miles on it ran awesome!!! She traded it in as she got sick of the style. Also I stick to 4wd due to where I live we need it.

Bravo on the question & as for my answer I would be a Delorean just like the one on back to the future.

Either a 1970 Road Runner Superbird or SRT Charger Hellcat. The latter you get a little practicality with your horsepower needs sufficed.

[WowwGirl]

Road runner 😂

Fun fact, the car and the motor were so fast they were banned from NASCAR because it was an unfair advantage. It was the first car to break the 200 MPH barrier in NASCAR and they made a slightly detuned (emphasis on 'slightly') of the 426 HEMI for the street. Now very rare and very expensive.
Without googling, do you know why they called these engines, 'hemi's'?

[Likes2drive]

Domed pistons, hemispherical shaped for higher compression

[WowwGirl]

@Likes2drive interesting

[Floppy2112]

@Likes2drive Close, the type of pistons are irrelevant. The cylinder heads being shaped literally like have a sphere, like a ball cut in half is where the name came from.
And I am not demeaning your knowledge, just explaining it in a way everybody can understand.
As far as pistons are concerned, ideally flat topped pistons are ideal, for the hemispherical shaped heads to work optimally as intended. For the flame front to have optimal effect based on the head shape to create optimal cylinder pressure by design, the pistons should be flat. Unfortunately, because of the constraints of the valve sizes it's difficult to get high enough compression especially in large displacement engines, domed pistons are often used. It diminishes the intended designed effect a little, but without compression the engine won't run worth a crap.
I'd love to get my hands on an old hemi and design a popup, flat domed piston. It's probably been tried, but I haven't seen it.

[Floppy2112]

** half of a sphere...

[Likes2drive]

Oh I knew about the Head shape with valves being close because the Pistons practically slam into it and just missing the valves. I think a Ford flathead would be interesting too

[Floppy2112]

@Likes2drive I like the theory behind it, which was to center the the highest concentration of the force generated by the flame front directly on the center of the piston which is, at least theoretically speaking ideal. But it's really hard to make compression in true hemis and people use domed are valve relieved domed pistons to increase compression, but end up disturbing the actual idea behind the design. Of course, boost mitigates most of these issues, so if you are big into boost, swirl and fuel dissipation is far less evident.
And that's what I would like to see from the flat head. It's both such a bad and a good design at the same time. I would like to see a properly done boosted flathead. They have such low compression, that I have to imagine boost would be magical for it. Perhaps the blocks are too weak to do that. Anyway, I digress. I love talking engine dynamics. It's endlessly fascinating to me.

[Likes2drive]

Yeah it’s definitely interesting, what do you think about dual spark plugs in each cylinder? I’ve seen it with some Japanese motors to burn the unburned fuel from the combustion for emissions and also aircraft motors but that was more for a back up, maybe it could add horsepower too

[Floppy2112]

@Likes2drive I think it’s a great idea, it gives two flame fronts and is more efficient. It also gives you more flexibility with timing. People have poo pooed ignition for a long time, but I think it’s one of my the great less explored actions in engine dynamics. Ferrari has been using it in various cars since the 50s. People are often surprised when spark plugs make more power, but when you think about ignition it makes sense. Fuel doesn’t burn instantly, it takes time, that’s why we advance timing. So the more fuel you can ignite at once the better and more complete the burn and the more control you have. It just suck to buy 16 spark plugs, but they last so long now it’s mitigated.

[Likes2drive]

Yeah exactly, they should do that with most motors

@FlySwimmer In other words i'm very nationalistic.

[FlySwimmer]

Yessir😂

[Alexandrubaschet08]

@FlySwimmer Dacia is one of the best care and the sell for it start to grow more and more i start to see it even in London.
A very good and accesible care.
Seem you don't know nothing about cars.

[FlySwimmer]

No I do lol, I was just joking by the way

[Alexandrubaschet08]

@FlySwimmer Not a good joke, this car is a capodopera from my country.
How "Dacia car" look in 1990 (i live as well in one) and look how it start to look now.
I'm not ashamed to identificare whit my national car.
Czech will do the same whit "Skoda"

[FlySwimmer]

I would be if I identified with a car that represents america (where I live) lol

[Alexandrubaschet08]

@FlySwimmer Moust of the time Europ have bether cars and bether looking ;)

[FlySwimmer]

Lol, true, unless it is a Tesla, they don’t have those in Europe very much

[Alexandrubaschet08]

@FlySwimmer It start to come. In UK i see a lot of Tesla.

[FlySwimmer]

Yeh, but I have started to see a lot of Tesla’s where I live, :) my dad has a model s p100d and my mom has a model x, they got me a model 3 for my first car but I refuse to drive it until I get older so that I don’t accidentally crash it, I bought a cheaper car with my own money :)

[Alexandrubaschet08]

@FlySwimmer i don't have drive licence

I've always loved BMWs. I prefer the 5 series over the 2 or 3. What kind of car would *I* be? Years ago it would have been a Jaguar XKE. A few years ago a Bugatti Veyron. Today I would go back in time and be a '66 GTO, 421, 4 speed, posi.

[worldscolide]

This one.. Which I own.

[WowwGirl]

Wtf is that

[worldscolide]

Its a 1987 Buick GN X28. It has a 3.8 liter v6, turbo charged.. In that picture where i was at a drag strip it was making 1735 horses at the rear wheels. It topped out at 245 miles and hour, and did the quarter mile in just under 8 seconds. One of the fastest Buicks on the planet, and there were only 500 of these made.

[worldscolide]

This thing is sitting in my garage as my Sunday driver lol.. The wife loves it, but is also afraid of it.

Being it foldable is quite useful as you can commute with bus, train and airplane.

So I can carry my mean of transport anywhere in the world.
