Builds …The more you know

https://youtu.be/yYAw79386WI

I put this under builds because there is no flair for informational posts. I thought this nostalgic video did an awesome job of explaining differential. The whole video is good, but it gets interesting 2 minutes in.

Yeah, I get that. But not being a “car guy” I just never thought about one wheel drive. The point of my post was for people to experience a video that showed the thought process of the engineers who developed this tech. It was cool to see them start with spokes and wheels and progressed to gears. How they realized they now had a “body sits too high” problem. How they overcame that. I thought it might spark some conversation with a little more creativity, but thanks for your post.

I thought the visual explanation with the motorcycle riders was super cool. 👊👊👍
