While I believe the laws of Physics are laws in the real world there can be so many variables and conditions that the laws are difficult, impractical or impossible to apply.

I recall a long discussion with a PhD in Physics that could not explain why countersteering a motorcycle works, and even questioned that it does work.

In my book best idea wins! Best luck to all that try to solve these problems and please hurry up my double row has 104K mi and I am too cheap to change it before clutch time.

This is actually getting quite comical. "Real engineering"... please.

At every PCA event I am surrounded by successful engineers, business owners, physicists, medical doctors, rocket scientists, race team owners, and F1 engine suppliers. The ones who build on the groundwork laid by those with years of hands-on experience and apply their specialized skills are thriving. The ones who ignore or discount those with the most direct hands-on experience go nowhere fast.

Carry on.
