Machines! on The Science Channel looking at a rally car

Tomorrow night (Friday 3/12/10) at 7pm on The Science Channel the show "Machines!" will be looking at how a rally car is built, and how it works. I think it's a Subaru one as well.

:laugh:

 

cool...thanks!!

 

I dont know if it was the same show or just one like it I remember watching before was pretty awsome! Looks like Discovery Channel has takin up quite the interest in rally between then Sci channel and HD theater!

 

HAHA, they show the intercooler as an air intake in one of the animations.

 

yeah, not that interesting. was hoping for a little more.

 

Yeah, I was hoping for more too, but cest le vie.

 

yeah, the tech was pretty light. however, there was lots of footage of some pretty awesome 2wd rally cars. that is always a good thing.

 

I thought it was good for people who had no prior knowledge to the whole rally car thing. My wife seemed like she picked up a few things that otherwise she wouldn't have given the time of day to.

 

I just watched this on-demand and they actually showed it correctly. They were using a wrc engine where the air filter is in the tmic position. The intercooler is v-mounted in the front of the engine
