There are many considerations to be taken into account when determining the most appropriate time for the meeting, some are obvious and others are not. For example the date in March used to be determined by the timing of a full moon, as a full moon means a high water table. Now it's determined by wh...

Does a time set on tarmac still count as a land speed record ? NO As there will be better grip compared with salt, would the records count on a tarmac surface. I thought it might have be a natural surface such as salt, sand or even ice. Your assuming that the grip would be better. Each location has...
