My quarter

I have learned many things this quarter that i didn't even know you could do. I learned that blogging is way better than sitting in class and writing. I thought it was interesting learning on how to blog and what it is about. I enjoyed being able to write about something that i actually like and not some dumb topic that is boring to me. I got very frustrated when I couldn't write on and comment on peoples wall and there posts they have. I also got frustrated when i couldn't add pictures to my profile because nobody would help me. I liked writing about my weekend and telling people how dope it was. I didn't like writing about my experience because I like it but I think we had to write to much for it. I think I might keep blogging after this class is gone just because it is cool to make your own page about things you actually like to do. I like adding pictures to it to show what you like to do. I think blogging makes this class better than writing and writing is boring to me and I like being on the computer. So overall I really like blogging. It is a cool experience to learn.

I am a Wheel

I am a wheel, I am made out of a bunch of things. I am made out of aluminum. I go on all sorts of a cars around the world. I can also be many colors but manly just silver. I go inside of a tire and then go on a car. I come in many different sizes and also patterns.They come in all sorts of different designs and even spinning ones. I can also be put on other vehicles like a motorcycle, go cart, and even a semi. If you hit me up against a curb I could brake by denting me, or even snapping me. You can mount and balance me at a shop when you first buy me. There are wieghts you can connect to me so I roll straight and not tip over. You can also strap a wheel sensor around me to tell you if im low on pressure. There is a hole inside me so you can put a valve stem in me and fill the tire up with air.  

Racing Seat

Today I bring you my review of Racing seats that are different than most. Many people that are into cars know about the different kinds of seats you can get. There are seats that are better than other, and seats that are meant for different things. Everybody will probably think different with what one is the best. I think Corbeau, Sparco, Recaro and also Bride are the best for racing. You can buy them in leather cloth and even plastic. Seats in the inside are usually made from rails and plastic in the inside with padding. They are better than regular seats because they are more comfortable and are lighter. They even keep you more safe when your racing because you usually have a different seat belt than regular. The seat belts most people use are 4-point and 5-point harnesses and that means it hooks up in five different places. The 5-point is illegal now because they say it isn't save if you get in an accident. The seat on the side is a Recaro ITR seat which is a very nice seat and is very expensive. It also shows the 4-point harness and kinda where they bolt up.

Indy 300

Sunday, the 17th of October, the Indy 300 was held. This race was an important race. CBS news says many of the drivers were excited but new that there was going to be at least two bad crashes. Dan Wheldon was in one of the crashes and wasn't so lucky with the outcome of the crash. They said he went airborne and ran into the fence. There was fifteen cars involved in the bad crash Sunday the 17th. Wheldon was air lifted from the track to the hospital. Short time after he was lifted CEO Randy Bernard announced that thirty-three year old has passed away from unserviable injuries. This race was the first fatalities in a race since 2006 when Paul Dana died and later on Dan Wheldon had won that race. Dan Wheldon was racing for Sam Schmidt, whose own driving career was cut short from an accident. Many of the drivers had concerns on the track approaching speeds of 225 M.P.H. The whole crash started when two cars in front of Wheldon were swerving and one of the racers tire went over the top of the others, then they went airborne and startled more drivers considering Wheldon. Danica Patrick quoted that it was like a movie sense when the crash all happened. Indy car driver Ganassi, said all of us died a little bit today with the death of Wheldon.

JDM Blog

• Design - The design is very simular to mine and has many pictures to show you the cars. I think they did a good job showing the JDM theme that they chose. The blog was very well organized and wasnt a cluster of information. I think it is very well explained and self explanitory.
• Focus – The site is about what cars are hot right now and whats not. I knew right away what the blog was about and caught on quickly to it. It was easy to read because of the subtitles.
• Content – He did a good job of staying on topic and not going else where. It all was easily readable and I understood everything he was writing and saying in his blog. When he spotlights the cars I thought he did a  very good job showing and explaining them.
• Writing Style – I can relate to what there saying and it is clear that its a guy showing his voice. He shares many new things and keeps it orignal and shares good information.
• Grammer and Punctuation – I couldn't find any mistakes in his blog and he didn't have any mistakes.
• Message Effectiveness – He clearly puts out the message on cars and what he is talking about.
• Website Audience –There are many different people and when they write its all about the topic and they are all the same.
• Info about the author – I think its a professional blog and i understand what he is saying in his blog and he knows what he is talking about.
• Anything else you think is important –  I think he could of wrote more about the history of the cars he is explaining and could add more pictures than information.

How to make a fast Honda?

If you already have a nice motor it is pretty easy. You can buy many aftermarket parts that will help you gain horsepower. Lets say you have an h22 with high compression then its pretty easy to! You can go buy a skunk 2 intake manifold which will add some power. You can also take the injectors out and take the screens out of them, and its all pretty easy to do. It depends on the size of the exhaust you have because the amount of flow it has. When you start tearing apart the block there is many things you can buy. When you start the block There is many little parts. You can buy pistons and rods and that will help you with how high your compression is. If you have high compression then you don't want to put a turbo on it. If you go low compression then you can put a turbo on the motor and you will gain lots of power. A turbo is proably the easiest way to make lots of power but it is not cheap at all. When you put a turbo on then you have to go to some performance shop and get the car tuned for the turbo. You will also make more power of the tune. You also have to tune a car when you put cams in your car. There are many ways to make power, but it al depends on what kind of build you want. Its either turbo or NA. NA is naturally Asperated, and means high compression with no turbo or supercharger. Those are just some ways you can make horsepower.
