Craziest Cars in the F1 History

For decades, Formula 1 has enthralled hundreds of thousands of fans all over the world. It is a world that features a mix of drivers possessing some impressive super-human abilities, physics-bending engineering, and the glamour and the glitz of the most exotic race locations in the world. The motoring world was even crazier back in the 60w, 70s, and the 80s. Back then, engineering rules were more lax which paved the way to some of the most out-of-this-world vehicles to ever grace the racetracks. Below are some of the craziest, wackiest cars in F1 history.

Brabham’s 1978 BT46B definitely deserves a spot in this list. Originally designed by Gordon Murray, the famed engineer behind McLaren’s F1 road car, the car was designed with a fan attached to its back, right beneath the wing. This design was used to compete along the ground-effects units that others have introduced around that time such as the Lotus 79. Supposedly, the addition of the fan was for cooling purposes. In reality though, it actually extracted air from underneath and it produced downforce. Entered into a single race only, it was driven by Niki Lauda to a won at the 78 Swedish Grand Prix.

Another one of the wacky cars to ever grace the F1 world is the 1976 Tyrell P34. While it is true that there are often a number of rules that designers had to adhere to, Derek Gardner from Tyrell was not really asked to limit his number of wheels to four so he took advantage of that. This led him to take care of a problem that used to plague so many teams in the 75 to 76 seasons- a front splitter with a fixed width which kept the wheels pushed to the corners to be able to use the wing while allowing for space for the suspension, the steering mechanism, as well as the driver’s feet. What Tyrell did was a six-wheeled solution along with standard rear wheels.

If Brabham’s BT46B is known as the good F1 car that looks like a jet plane, Ligier’s 1976 JS5 is considered the bad. In 1976, the Ligier debuted a car with a gulping maw spouting on its back. This design by Gerard Ducarouge is known as the Teapot. After a rule change thug, its air box got downsized in the following seasons, which eventually helped aerodynamics.

In the 80s, Williams used its hugely successful FW07C 1981 as basis for a test car called FQ07D. The car employed six weeks, four of it in the back, in order to promote better grip and stability. This development eventually spawned the FW08B. It was never raced through after the rules have been changed by the FIA where only four-wheeled racers are allows on the grid and only two could be driven.

Then there is the 1979 Ensign N179. Often considered as the F1’s ugliest car in its history, its radiators were carried on its snout but it has been known to suffer from serious overheating issues. The heat inside the cockpit proved to be unbearable for drivers too. Also referred to as cheese grater, it attempted to qualify seven times, but failed.

The colourful history of the F1 world has paved the way to some of the most interesting cars in the track. With its continuing legacy, fans all over the word can only wait in anticipation what new creations the motorsports world can come up with next. Keep updated with the latest news in the F1 world by reading about Sir Jack Brabham and his iconic brand online.

What to do about Car Repair

When your car is damaged in an accident, it’s understandable that you will want to have it fixed as soon as possible. Googling “auto body shop near me” might seem like a good place to begin looking for a place to get your vehicle repaired, but there should be more to your search than that. Here are just a few tips that might help you find the best auto body shop for your dented vehicle.

Ask Around

The best place to start your auto body shop search will be with people that you know. Ask your friends, family members, coworkers, or anyone else you may know who they recommend. Word of mouth is still a powerful advertising tool, and it will probably help you find what you need faster than any Google search.

Pay Attention to Overhead

An auto body shop with a large and luxurious front office and several employees might look great at a glance, but it will almost certainly charge you more simply because of the overhead costs. You might find that these shops do great work, but you might want to search for a smaller and more modest shop if money is a serious issue.

Get Several Estimates

Different shops will provide you with different estimates, so it never hurts to shop around to several places to make sure that you’re getting the best deal. Even though you do often get what you pay for, you don’t want to be overcharged for something that another shop will do for you at a fraction of the price.

Trust Your Gut

When all else fails and you don’t know where to take your damaged car, trust your gut. It sounds strange in an age where you can pull up several reviews of any business out there online with a click of a mouse, but your instincts are actually correct more often than you might think. If something feels wrong about a shop, don’t take your car there. Find a place with mechanics that seem more trustworthy instead. As long as you’ve heard that they do great work at reasonable prices, you should have a good experience with them.

Tips for Driving at Night

From time to time each one of us might need to drive at night. For some of us , this might be something that doesn’t happen very often and something that fills us with fear. For this very reason it might be a good idea to take all the necessary precautions to make the whole experience a lot safer. Below you will find some tips that can allow you to achieve this:

1. If you know that you will have to drive at night, take a nap prior to the trip. It doesn’t matter how early it is going to be, but getting some rest even in the late afternoon can make a huge difference in terms of your performance. If you know that you won’t have enough time for a nap, drinking a coffee can ensure that you stay more alert on the road.

2. Check your lights before the journey. There won’t be that much you will be able to do if you suddenly discover that one of your lights doesn’t work anymore. It can slow you down and it can cause a lot of problems. Conduct regular checks and you should be fine.

3. If an accident has already happened to you, don’t panic, but contact a car accident lawyer as soon as it is needed to ensure that you get the help you need. You might need it especially if you know that you weren’t the one to blame for the accident, but also if you were and you are looking for somebody to help you with your case.

4. Be extra alert, and additionally watch out for pedestrians who might be harder to spot at night. It might also help to have somebody drive with you to help you to notice the hazards you might not be able to notice yourself. It is like having another person driving your car at the same time.

5. Make sure that the task is not too much for you. If you don’t feel confident enough to drive for too long at night, simply don’t do it and seek other arrangements in place.

Green Cars in Japan

Japan is a highly advanced country and very often what becomes popular there, becomes popular in other parts of the world such as North American or Europe. That is why keeping a close eye on recent developments in Japan is a wise choice, especially for those interested in technology. One of the recent trends that are emerging there is the increased popularity of green cars. Japan understands the problems associated with regular vehicles and they are trying to implement more eco-friendly cars such as powered hybrids, electric cars, and fuel-cell. Hybrid cars may be especially popular, and I believe that the Western world will also benefit from more eco-friendly cars; however, it might be a little bit later in the future.
