Two actually, if I'm not mistaken. The Galant GTO (70's, I think) and what we knew as the 3000 GT.

Ok I'm pretty sure We havn't used more then 3/4 of those words.. I reckon we should share them out in the "Search" function and see how many hits each word gets and see how "enthusiastic" we are about cars..

[digitalcraft]

Yes, two GTOs.

[KingNothing]

Yes, two GTOs.

I knew the Galant was called the VR4 but i didnt know it went by GTO too...as for the 3000 GT its called GTO in Forza...i found that kinda cool that they did it as if you were importing it from japan.

Wedge--Broadly, a common term for most head designs that don't use hemispherical combustion chamber. More narrowly, it refers to Chrysler motors, like the 413 Max Wedge, that used a more conventional wedge-shaped combustion chamber.

Wedge is also used quite often in NASCAR circle, not as an engine term by as an suspension/chassis setup term. Wedge is referred to as the diagonal cross-weight of the vehicle(ie, front left to rear right). Nominally for typical vehicle that turns left and right this will be close to 50:50, regardless of the actual weight distribution of pure left side to right side. For NASCAR they will want to set this up to aid turning left only. Wedge can be adjusted via preloading the spring.

The Galant we were talking about was made a lot earlier than the VR4's.

[KingNothing]

AFAIK = As far as I know.

[Egg Nog]

Stolen, ok then ill put source in. jeesh

It's one thing to post a small cut-and-paste quote or something, but surely you can understand why it's not right to take a full article and retitle the "UCP Glossary".

Thanks for adding that.

[Sledgehammer]

I actually wasnt upset at all, I just forgot about the source, usually im pretty good about that. It can be hard to dictate what you actually mean over the internet.

*edit* also I will be adding user input to the glossary and make it more ucp personalized .

Then you might want to know that there are inaccuracies or missing information.

[Sledgehammer]

As I would assume. What are the inaccuracies and missing info?
