We started a trivia thread over at another forum and it has been a lot of fun.
Here are the ground rules. It starts with one question. The first reply with the right answer gets the floor for a new question. It continues like that unless, A) the person who has the floor doesn't ask a new question, or B) no one gets the correct answer. In that case, the person with the floor asks a new question. No more than one question on the floor at a time, and discussion/clarification is welcome until the floor is taken over by a new question.
First question: In the 1952 Indy 500, what type of fuel was burned in the record-setting pole-position #28 car? Hint: it won pole position by a full 4 mph over the second-place Ferrari
Actually they had 3 different doors Brian. A glove box door, a fuel door, and two side doors
Sorry BB hadn't said anything smart so I figured I would help him out. The only difference I can think of is some didn't have a window frame and some did, no idea why or why not.
Sorry for the delay, I was out late yesterday and then had to shovel snow for a few hours this morning. :thumbup:
Next question:
This is the logo for a company that has been making automotive components for over a hundred years. What is the name of the company and what does the design of it's logo represent?
I am not fimilar with the german parts companys as the only german car I have owned is ,I bought a new Turbo Porsche in 99 , (middle age crazy ) I only kept it a year or so , so I don't know much about them,,forgot about the VW if you consider that a car.
I don't believe they've ever built an entire car. They are best known for their electrical components, although they also make household appliance and power tools among other things. The name has nothing to do with the design of the logo - The company's name doesn't start with an H. Their components have been used in every American car for the past 30 years or more. :thumbup:
Which university did testing on 3/8 scale models of Dodge Chargers which led to the Charger 500 and ultimately the Daytona Charger and the Superbird. The one I am looking for is my alma mater.
Well no one else is answering so I will.
Wichita State University home of the National Institute of Aviation Reserch.
On site is the Walter H. Beech Wind Tunnel. Walt having built is airplane factories in Wichita Kansas.
I'm pretty sure Chrysler stuck that Charger into Walt's tunnel for testing.
What did they do to curtail the Friday afternoon guys who ran across the street to the bars, cashed their checks and downed 4-6 whiskey-7's ....
