I used to think drafting worked by the car behind taking in the exhaust gasses of the car in front and using them as extra fuel….
Well i pronounced aventador as aventaeder and i though top speed was all it matters in cars always looking for top 10 fastest cars on youtube…. Thought that was all
When you are interested in cars that much from an early age, you mostly know the basic stuff. These are ridiculous. :D
Relate to that ;)
That first one….that was me LOL
actually, the only one i actually believed in was the top speed one. My dads durango said it went 120. i was like wow thats fast!
I thought the more exhaust pipes a car had, the faster it was
Whats the difference between 8V (valves) and V8? O.o
The more exhaust pipes the mote power
I used to the think the fuel tank was a spare engine underneath the car, just in case the main one stopped working
I thought spoilers deflected air forward pushing the car forward thus making it faster….
