Wheel spin due to Magazines

Post by Subtle »

Friend of mine is moving and had 30 years of Road & Track magazines.

A guy in Bellingham WA. wants them and couldn't pick them up before the move.

They've been in the back of the Twgn, and at 7 lbs per year it amounts to over 200 pounds.

The shift in the center of gravity has reduced the traction on the front such that in the wet the front-wheelspin is almost as much fun as on snow. :D

Will be picked up on Monday--I'll miss them.
