Mine doesn't go that fast; so, I was thinking of adding two extra wheels and make it look like this! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nNFmb7nRnNo&feature=PlayList&p=785AFC1C62DDDBC1&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=20

using this   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_velocity

and yes... i'm bored at work   lol

this is what i get ... if i did it right ... seems kinda fast

***************************************************************

Vt = terminal velocity,

m = mass of the falling object,     
    = 1978kg    (TJ with I6 and hardtop)

g = acceleration due to gravity,       
   = 9.81m/s²

Cd = drag coefficient,                   
     = .55

p = density of the fluid through which the object is falling, and       
               =  1.2 kg/m³     (at sea level)

A = projected area of the object.
   = 2.963m²            1.750m (height)  * 1.693m (width) = 2.963m²           

 Plug all those in and you end up with 141.19m/s   


141.19m/s is equal to 508.28 k/h

So 508.28 k/h is the terminal velocity of a TJ falling nose down at sea level     :o


See.... I knew I could get it over 200km...... Anybody looking for a fun way out of their current lease?

Eric, by all means fork out $11k... and you could make it into a pancake, if you'd like.
