Topic 2- Particular Hobby/Interest
Car modification-A modified car consist of any components associated
with car tuning. This means replacing the standard factory parts to custom
aftermarket parts for example:
-Lowering the suspension of a car to give it more aerodynamics this
makes the car more sturdy when turning around corners
tires to racing tires
so you can have more grip on your car when you travel at high speeds,
Changing the exhaust to increase the sound of the engine it makes it
louder and deeper.
-Short shifter- this makes gears go in easier and smoother this is mainly used to race so there is no time wasted.
-Common non-mechanical upgrades
include a cars audio system; though not performance oriented
There is also what is called 'sleeper'
tuning. A sleeper car is a car that
has high performance and an unassuming exterior this means that its outside looks
like every other day car but it is heavily tuned from the inside (the engine).
-Some cars add camber to
their wheels. Camber is when a wheel is angled to the outside. This adds more
handling to the car, adds steering power and the car has a better grip on the
road.
Obviously some people take
advantage of these car mods and this is why many of the modifications of the
car are illegal. These can put your life in danger on the road since you can
get distracted by some of them. So do not exceed your limit and enjoy the sport!
