Aerodynamically symmetrical. Spinning propellers do weird things to air.

And NOT "homo-sexualism"...?

Village People – Live And Sleazy (1979, Vinyl) - Discogs

I'm also rather fond of them classifying Julio Inglesias and 10cc as neofascist.

Tina Turner? Really. That's an odd one on that list. Maybe commies find Auntie Entity threatening?

I see these clips on Porsche 356s only, nothing newer.    I suspected to hold the tube valve stem in place until air fills it, but these cars have the newer tubeless type schraeder valves.

Probably to support the weight of the valve at high speed.

I am assuming that German rubber was even worse in the 50s than it was in the 90s.  And also assuming that German engineers knew about this.

 

In further reflection, the large type valve stems may not hold into the wheel as well as the 7/16" ones, so they may blow out at high speed regardless of rubber quality.  For what passes for high speed in a 356, anyway.

I think this started after you moved south, they decided to make the roads NARROWER and more twisty so people would slow down. Pretty sure they forgot big rigs drive through every day and kinda need to get to that Sheetz. They also did the water main on the North side of 119 this spring, and the "patches" tossed my excursion all over the road today. 

I argued to just build a bridge over Youngwood, or another bypass, but that would make sense.

Picture unrelated. My buddy the security/fire alarm tech is on assignment at Heinz field, that's a camera that needs checked out in the circle.

Reminds me of the video I saw a day or two back.  Guy searched for 4-6 months for a manual convertible Jag F-Type, had it shipped to his house which alone took 2-3 weeks, transporter didn't know to keep the car in gear and handbrake on.  Fell off the top of the transport trailer and totalled the car

This one, you mean?
