That would be the centrifical force factor, speed, gravity, turning ratio, cabin pressure, material stress .....Raw Dawgin' it;1486940 wrote:Anyone else notice the 40 mile turning radius? lol
lol 40 mile minimum. Wonder how many people would pass out from gforce if they fuck that up .Belly35;1486946 wrote:That would be the centrifical force factor, speed, gravity, turning ratio, cabin pressure, material stress .....
I would think it would have been greater...
Yeah it's not like you can turn on a dime at that speed.Belly35;1486946 wrote:That would be the centrifical force factor, speed, gravity, turning ratio, cabin pressure, material stress .....

It would take like 10 seconds to make the turnRaw Dawgin' it;1486940 wrote:Anyone else notice the 40 mile turning radius? lol
Passing out would be the least of the problem ... those with weak blatter and intestine ...shitting their pants and pissing... Clean up in Car Loop 2 Please...Raw Dawgin' it;1486950 wrote:lol 40 mile minimum. Wonder how many people would pass out from gforce if they fuck that up .
I wasn't concerned with the added time, more of a "holy shit" factor. My commute to work is 45 miles each way, i can't imagine a train making that as one turn in 10 seconds. Fucking crazy.Pick6;1486990 wrote:It would take like 10 seconds to make the turn
lol someone has to test the system to find this out.Belly35;1486996 wrote:Passing out would be the least of the problem ... those with weak blatter and intestine ...shitting their pants and pissing... Clean up in Car Loop 2 Please...
Aren't planes still the safest form of transportation statistically?said_aouita;1487019 wrote:I'd feel safer on a train that's going really fast than flying at any speed on a plane.

Sitting next to one of those types would probably make a person NEVER want to do that again.Belly35;1486996 wrote:Passing out would be the least of the problem ... those with weak blatter and intestine ...shitting their pants and pissing... Clean up in Car Loop 2 Please...
I don't buy that at 14,000 mph. Seems like a lot could wrong.Pick6;1487036 wrote:Yes
As for it being safe, the info graphic claims it would be the safest form of transportation. Basically impossible to crash.
