HONDA NOVA NASCAR Race Legend

HONDA NOVA NASCAR Race Legend 

David Carl Allison began working for his dad Bobby's Winston Cup team after he graduated from high school. After hours, Davey and his friends, affectionately known as "the peach fuzz gang" worked on a Chevy Nova that he built. His enthusiasm and devotion to the sport began to grow and he started his career in racing at Birmingham International Raceway in 1979.
Emulating his father's proud and fiercely competitive drive, he finished fifth in his very first event and went on to take his first win that same year in only his sixth start. In 1984, Davey earned the ARCA Rookie of the Year award and placed 2nd in the series title. He began competing in some of NASCAR's lower divisions in 1985, and soon, car owner Hoss Ellington gave him his first opportunity to drive a Winston Cup car at the Talledega 500, his home track. He took 10th place and Winston Cup Rookie of the Year honors.
Two years later in 1987, Davey Allison won his first NASCAR Winston Cup race at the same track. Also in 1987, Davey became the first rookie to qualify on the front row for the Daytona 500. The very next year he took 2nd place behind his dad Bobby at the Great American Race. Both Bobby and Davey would consider this celebration in victory lane at Daytona the greatest moment of their lives.
Davey Allison's races spanned only five complete NASCAR Winston Cup seasons, and in 191 events he earned 19 victories, including the 1992 Daytona 500. His life was tragically cut short by a helicopter crash in the infield at Talladega Superspeedway in 1993. At the time of his death, he was leading the IROC series championship with one race remaining in the four race series. Terry Labonte drove the final race in his place and secured the championship for him.

2011 Nissan Electric Sports Cars ESFLOW Concept

2011 Nissan Electric Sports Cars ESFLOW Concept
The ESFLOW concept cars will be unveiled at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show (3-13 March) where it will share the Nissan stand with a number of other innovative and exciting newcomers - but with one major difference: these are production ready.
The 2011 Nissan Electric Sports Cars ESFLOW Concept isn’t scheduled to be unveiled until the 2011 Geneva Motor Show in just a couple of weeks. Nissan plans to reveal its new electric concept, called Esflow, at the Chicago Auto Show this year. The car will make its world debut at the 2011 Geneva Motor Show from March.
2011 Nissan Electric Sports Cars ESFLOW Concept
Nissan has a reputation for creating some of the most exhilarating sports cars on the market. Nissan has also developed the world's first practical Zero Emission family car, the Nissan LEAF. Now Nissan has put that expertise together. It has captured the excitement of a sports car and the environmental benefits of an electric vehicle and blended them into one dramatic two-seater concept: ESFLOW.
It may be a concept, but the Nissan ESFLOW electric sports cars proves it's possible to remain environmentally sympathetic without having to give up the joy of driving. It looks like a sports car, handles like a sports car and performs like one too. But Nissan ESFLOW Concept cars is different to every other sports car yet built: it's electric. Using technology pioneered in the award-winning Nissan LEAF, the EV concept shows that driving can still be as much fun tomorrow as it is today.

Ecological minimalism need not come at the expense of luxury. The cabin of the 2011 Nissan Electric Sports Cars ESFLOW Concept is clean and open and weight saving has been a priority throughout its design, but it is still a comfortable and pleasant place to sit. By far the heaviest components in modern cars' interiors are the steel framed, thickly upholstered and increasingly motorized seats. In 2011 Nissan Electric Sports Cars ESFLOW Concept the seats are sculpted into the rear bulkhead of the car, negating the need for a heavy frame. This of course means that they are immobile, but this is of no consequence as the fly-by-wire steering and pedals adjust electrically to the best spot to suit each individual driver's size and preferred driving position.
Nissan ESFLOW Concept is rear-wheel drive and it runs on two motors. The car's graceful proportions allow the twin electric motors to be placed above the axis of the rear wheels, in a mid-ship position,. These motors independently control the left and right wheels, and so the torque is optimized to ensure outstanding vehicle stability and control as well as efficient power regeneration. The motors produce enough torque in an instant for it to reach a 100kph in under 5 seconds.

Power for the motors comes from the same laminated lithium-ion battery packs used in the Nissan LEAF, but in ESFLOW the packs are located along the axis of the front and rear wheels. This centralizes the mass of the car, and thus its rotation point, close to the driver's hips. These cleverly positioned batteries enable the car to travel over 240km on one charge.

The colors of this Esflow are inspired from glaciers, with highly reflective blue-tinted solidified liquid shapes. Even if this concept will not hit the production line too soon, it could be a great source of inspiration for Nissan’s future sports cars.
