- Terrific piece on flywheels Bill! While reading it my thoughts turned to gyroscopes....is that a factor in LSR flywheels?. Two wheelers have an in-line flywheel so I guess there's a gyroscopic factor

- Glad you liked that, Brian. The gyroscopic effect of the wheels on a motorcycle has long been recognized. It is generally beneficial because the greater the speed of the wheels/gyroscopes, the greate

- Bill, Brian & List Jeff Shipley a long time lakes and Bonneville racer has a twin engine streamliner with two Chevrolets mounted sideways and four wheel drive. It's quite a engineering feat. The car

- OK...if a linear gyro is with ya, then one at right angles is agin ya?. So..longitudinal mounted engines could be a disadvantage if things start to unglue down the track, will they unglue faster beca
