I think the tires are so heavy on these #MonsterTrucks that they can use them as reaction wheels in mid-air

(For context - I just felt like watching monster truck videos)

Ich hab mal dem Michael Bloss (EU-Parlament/Grüne) und dem ETSC (der Verkehrssicherheitsorganisation, auf deren PM der Spiegel-Bericht beruht) geschrieben und gefragt, was wir als normale BürgerInnen am effektivsten tun können, um das EU-Parlament zu überzeugen. Mal schaun, was kommt.

Three good things from today:
1. I was able to get my car inspected and there were no issues. It can be easy to forget things like that for me.
2. We went to Monster Jam at the Prudential Center in Newark. We got to see El Toro Loco do a backflip!
2. Speaking of forgetting things, I forgot our kids stuff bag at the security check-in at the arena. But thankfully I was able to recover it halfway through the show. They had just put it to the side.

I think it would be cool if monster trucks had more active suspension. Like if they could actively push and pull their tires, and could jump just using their suspension. I think it would open up a lot of tricks. Although I am not sure how the drivers would be able to independently control the motion of each tires suspension.

I searched around to see if I could find anybody doing something like this but couldn't find anything directly relevant. But I did find an article about some clever active suspension used in rally cars. https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-culture/a44069848/mclaren-proactive-chassis-control-citroen-wrc/

My younger son, 3 y/o, loves monster trucks...he really loves them. So of course I've been learning more about them. It turns out all the jumps and wheelies pose major challenges to keeping the engine operational
https://www.enginebuildermag.com/2020/02/monster-jam-monster-trucks-and-their-engines/ (sorry there are several ads on this link). When the truck is vertical, it has trouble to get fuel into the engine. So they use these special wicking mats to suck the fuel into the engine (Holley's Hydramat https://www.holley.com/products/fuel_systems/hydramat/)
