Are the tennis balls to improve aero?

98dsm jinxed and I felt the force trying to catch , so I applied the balls to cross

Hahaha this is awesome man. Keep it up

Wtf is happening here?

Let him cook . Idk where he's going with it but I am intrigued

I have an employee I think he must be related to. When he’s done they should get together and implement my guys hydrogen/solar self sustaining perpetual engine.

I'm still not convinced this isn't AI creating the posts and pictures

Hahaha only in the DSM community

The chassis framing is like when AI tries to make fingers

Its real. There's a thread of the original twin engine build that was made in the "pre-AI days"

I can't tell the difference between pictures now that there is so much scaffolding
I think you need to color code what has been added since a reason why isn't forthcoming

Foam is for?

Foam is for?

Helps keep grease off tarp . Most primer , paint , and clear . I grease

On this forum, we obey the laws of thermodynamics.

Ok, I figured it was to provide buoyancy or something to counter the half ton of extra weight from the tubing.
So, was any engineering done on this or are you just winging it? Serious question.

You're looking for a lay-up . Anything can be knocked . A Lamborghini is great until you get a service bill . 90's and early 2000's throttle bodied vehicles are the most reliable , but ugly . Late mode cars are the prettiest , but all look the same , and are engineered to be design obsolescent after 7-10 years or shortly following warranty expiration with plastic everything and integrated electronics . Just enjoy the ride ... Daffy out

A layup to what?

Are you seriously comparing the welding of random pieces of scaffold and then a coating of grease on it to the amount of engineering that goes into a Lamborghini? 90s/2000s throttle bodied vehicles? What a peculiar reference.

You offer no context of this thing except low resolution pictures and no facts about how safe it actually is because the design and implementation is thoughtful. All of those welds and much of the reinforcement look suspect and I don't see how you'd possibly be able to insure this for the road or any track, so it must be for show only.

That's a perfectly fine goal if that's what it is.

Don't know, all we see is metal stuck together and covered in foam and grease with tennis balls attached.

You're posting pictures to a site to show off work which is very unorthodox (who doesn't love crazy builds?) but when when asked if you are actually thinking it out and performing the necessary engineering tasks to ensure that tubes of metal suddenly don't become launched projectiles, you get defensive. Think about that for a second.

At one point early on in one of the pictures/videos you had a fuel cell attached using ratchet straps. How could you not expect questions about competency after that?
