Gravity, it's everywhere.

(Here on our rock anyway.)

but, unless the individual moving objects are somehow limited in their speed......

The old adage, isn't
'fastest way is always a straight line'.
It's
"The shortest distance between 2 points is always a straight line".
The sharp drops increases Velocity, which overcomes increased distance.


It IS an interesting visual tho.

Some how, this should apply to T and A also. Just not sure how and if I did, the rules of the road would probably not me allow to discuss it.

Some people are attracted to the counter, the weird or outliers. So being "that guy" helps too.

Been running cameras on the front of the house looking at the road for a while now and nearby neighbors have were told.
But it's surprising what you see out there when people think you aren't looking at them. And sometimes when they THINK you're watching is just as interesting.
A few HOA types from other streets must have just learned about the cameras and drive up and stop as if they're showing they won't be intimidated or something? IDK.

About 2 weeks ago at night (cold night) I spotted a figure so I rewound to review what I missed. It was a young female neighbor who came into view and took off her over-shirt to show a tight fitting shirt underneath as she glanced at the non-hidden cameras, then she looked to the windows as she continued on and it seemed she was waiting to see if I went to look at her from a window? A previous day she had been walking her dog when I was outside and after she already passed is when I saw her, but she was turned looking over and waved. Oh, that's friendly, I thought to myself. I'm thinking the camera strut was planned. A younger single man is going to make a connection with her soon.

Sourmash- That is Lewd behavior....She should not have done that......Send her over to my neighborhood......

Jake; "HP sells cars TQ wins races"...Ain't that the truth!

The kids nowadays think it is all about PEAK HP and don't care about the power curve- My 3.4 conversion has (Approx) 160 hp, but a guy on this website was bragging about his Del Sol 1.6 that had the same HP- at 7500 rpm. That engine's Torque peak was at.....7000! The band of RPM above the 100 hp mark was only from 6000 to 7500, while my 3.4 is over 100 from 2500 to 5000 (HALF the RPM range) Thru the gears, my engine is always above 100, while that Del Sol engine drops down to 90 the first few gears and then the upper gears it is down below 80 after each shift.

Power band WIDTH is important....
