Zeds and rolling roads.....

Something that has been going through my mind lately is 'why do a lot of zeds die on rolling roads?'. Airflow is a major factor for keeping the car operating within its temperature limits. Typically a RR will have a huge fan that is placed in front of the engine bay and this blows nice cool air over the engine and radiator. Now, think of a Zeds IC setup - they are in a PISS POOR position for receiving airflow anyway, nevermind if there isn't anything blowing at them ;) Stock intercoolers will heat soak very quickly if the engine is under load with no flow. So then you get detonation and before you know it BANG....

 

Anyone else any thoughts/ideas??? RRs are almost essential for propper tuning of a car - if we can't use them it only leaves us with 'on-road' tuning which isn't exactly as easy or accurate - RRs allow you to hold the engine at a certain rpm while changing the load etc....

 

CheerZ,

As far as I know, Specs read every number plate they can at the first camera, store it and then compare it with the second image. If the elasped time is less than the determined amount the computer processes it and sends it on, to who knows where and how. If the time is greater than the set time it simply dumps the info.

In passing, I have heard that the specs in Northampton, on a dual carriageway, can only read the fast lane. I have looked and it does seem to be right, I dont trust it though and go slow.
