Twin Engine Eclipse - Two Engine Car / Spinalsign5357 . Now three engines ... Triple Engine Eclipse

[Spinalsign5357]

Is this what Elon’s model rockets looked like before he brought in proper engineers?

Publicly traded automotive giants over a half century old hire the best engineers across the globe , and they still aren't above yearly recalls . While they do home run somethings sometimes , generally it's create , test , and improve .

I didn’t realize this was a prototype for production, sorry. Was merely making a joke that it seemed spectrum related maybe.

You may have missed the "rolling abortion" one.



"Scalable" what does that even mean? You're welding fence post upon fence post with no respect to structural strength or integrity. When does this end? when it's as long as a city bus or when it comes apart on the street and somebody is killed by flying metal debris?Jesus H Christ.

I have to agree, someone needs to stop this before he kills someone. Hang on, is this a fuc$ing bed extender used as a crash beam?!
I never chime in here, normally just shake my head in disbelief, but you elicited a response out of me.

I just wish I understood what the final goal was. Plus all that piping is definitely unnecessary, but if welding with trampoline tubing I guess I'd do the same. It looks like it belongs in a transformer movie or some shiz.

Put money where your mouth is and buy the Twin Engine Geo .Then you can go test and have a leg to stand on from experience . Or you can mail me a broke ratchet with a pre-agreed upon fee , and I'll weld the head and make a breaker bar out of it .That's two solutions on opposite price ends with an ability to test something I made to failure giving an opinion you have more weight cause it's coming from a place of trail not speculation . Or build one ... It's not hard .

I've shown some of what I can do with stock parts and not the best of anything .

Teh fck was any of that?

I do put my money where my mouth is -- in a car not haphazardly made that will kill me and anyone near by. Look, you want to build this to crop check or stay on your own property running circles on a private dirt track, fine, that's your business. But the engineering skill for something like this is entirely missing as are the proper tools for the job.
I'm willing to bet you don't own any of the asphalt that you were doing those "speed" runs on. Hell, there's pictures of this ..thing.. on the road clearly prove it.
If I were to see this on the street it would be a 100% instant report to the police. Just because you "can" do a thing doesn't mean you should.

That's why you spin hoe sh*t with no solution . I guess you report every motorcycle you see as they make no sense , have no protection with metal that can fly everywhere and are faster than you .

If that's the strongest argument you have, comparing a 500lb properly engineered, welded, and DOT and NHTSA approved frame, to whatever the f*ck this is, then you really are lost. I wash my hands of this and am just glad there is zero chance I'll ever be in Florida again. It's absolutely no surprise that wherever this gets posted, you get the same response.

2025 and you still haven't stolen a phone with a pixel count above the IQ required to goober these atrocities together with. This is a level of crack head that really needs studied.

So rather than use a muffler, which absorbs the soundwaves to dwell out the sound, or resonance chambers to absorb the sound, you just restricted the flow 80% instead. Amazing.

I remember 20 years ago someone put a exhaust cut out in-line of their system and drilled a hole in the throttle plate the size of yours. Did it kill the sound out, yes. Did it barely have enough power to get up a hill, yes.
You have basically put 3 engines in a car and choked their power to what 1 engine would do with a stock muffler.

But best of all, the idea that your silencer is a used oil filter with a hole drilled in it is some next level shit. I can't even think of an analogy as that's so f***ing out there.

The problem is , you haven't done it to know either way . It's lighter than a muffler and e-cut out . The trade off is exiting the car and taking a few seconds to remove the killer to regain full power , while also being one of the cheapest ways to sound deaden . I've done this before and was messing around with oil filters , but If it was " gutless " and had no power after doing , why would I drive or use it ...

I handmade killers for the Geo . The Eclipse has bought killers I welded in pipe .
