虽然IIHS认为现实中翻车事故十分复杂，很难进行动态模拟，但动态测试的支持者们仍
然对静态测试持怀疑观点。因为首先，静态测试不能模拟人在翻车时的受力情况——而
翻车时人员严重伤亡多为头颈部受伤引发，这就跟头颈部受力有关；其次，一次静态测
试通常只随机测试车辆一侧，这就无法测出车顶在一侧受力之后另外一侧再受力的表现
——而翻车车辆时常会受到两次撞击，其中近端（翻车初始先受力的一侧）往往比远端
受力小；再次，敞篷车都谈不上顶棚，那按照静态测试的逻辑，敞篷车应该是表现最差
的一类车——而IIHS的统计（驾驶员翻车死亡率，1984-2005）似乎也不太支持这个推
论（下图）；
最后，静态测试测得的车顶强度可能都不是真实强度，挡风玻璃在这种测试中可以提供
很高的强度——而这就意味着车厂可以在不加强顶棚的情况下蒙混过关（如下面这个
IIHS测试视频，15秒时这辆LaCrosse达到peak force，同时挡风玻璃破裂，然后强度就
大幅降低了。那么在这个例子中，是到达peak force后车顶形变过大导致玻璃破裂，还
是车顶本来强度就不高，一直靠玻璃撑着，直至玻璃破裂呢？这... 阅读全帖 |

Sharks display three ways to bear their young, varying by species:

embryo is protected by an egg case with the consistency of leather.
Sometimes these cases are corkscrewed into crevices for protection. The
mermaid's purse, which can wash up on shore, is an empty egg case. Oviparous
sharks include the horn shark, catshark, Port Jackson shark, and swellshark

今天的重头戏是Antelope Canyon，另外就是在Glen Canyon National Recreation
Area转转，看看Lake Powell和大坝。然后赶回Las Vegas。
Antelope Canyon是流水冲刷岩石（Navajo sandstone）形成的狭缝。下雨的时候，方
圆十几英里的雨水都会汇聚到这里，流经岩石中的狭缝，最后流入Lake Powell。加上
风的侵蚀作用，久而久之形成了现在的Antelope Canyon。当光线投进狭缝，会产生令
人着迷的神奇效果。据说Antelope Canyon是1931年一个Navajo牧羊女发现的。由于这
里以前有很多羚羊出没，因而得名。Canyon在UT-98 South上，距离Page大约7 mile远

发帖数: 680 | 49 quick upgrade的效果是适得其反的。它无非就是给你爆改一下引擎，把马力弄更大更
不好驾驭。
和AI开要看难度的。Easy的话AI自己会抱死出去的。Medium的话通常还是可以很轻松的
out-brake对手超的。Hard的话，一般你都要把车给调好，注意不要改过头，保持在这
个class的上限，然后你的车才能跟J Davis这种人好好拼一下。
跟赛车一样，起步的第一圈一定不要着急。你的车可以是最好的，但是你总是排在最后
一名发车的。第一圈赛道很拥挤，没有多少超车的线路，还很容易顶到慢车的屁股，然
后再左右被AI一挤就容易出去。所以要是发车位置不好，就得注意保持前车的动向，他
们的刹车点可能比你习惯的线路要早很多，你不能还是按照自己一个人跑time lap的方
式开。反正比赛还长着呢，等AI间车距拉开了以后再找机会一个一个超。
你要是能超过Davis，然后又被他追上来的话，多半是你有的弯没有走好。领先的时候
可以跑放松一些，慢进快出。
还有就是赛道一定要熟悉，特别是大直道以后的2档弯（加泰隆尼亚的10号弯），或者
