Mom surprises daughter with first car after turning life around | Happily TV
A daughter who overcame mental health issues was brought to tears of joy when her proud mom surprised her with her first-ever car after helping her turn her life around. Jaidalyn Santiago, from Springfield, Massachusetts, struggled with postpartum depression and a severe eating disorder, which saw her weigh just 70 pounds, her mom, Jacqueline, said. As much as Jacqueline tried to help, nothing seemed to work, which made her deeply worried about her daughter's wellbeing – but in the past year, Jaidalyn has seen her life turn around. Having focused on her mental and physical wellbeing, the stay-at-home mom was assisted by Jacqueline, a personal trainer, who designed a gym routine for her daughter, which saw her work out with her mom five times a week. Jaidalyn, a mom of two, would also help her mother part-time, but a lack of transportation limited her in what she could do for her mom's business, herself, and for her kids. And so, having seen how much effort her daughter had been putting in, Jacqueline decided to surprise her daughter with her first car. On April 27, at Jacqueline's home in Chicopee, Massachusetts, Jaidalyn opened a gift, which she thought was some new workout gear and sneakers. But when the mom-of-two looked inside the shoe box, she discovered the keys to her brand-new vehicle – a gesture that immediately made her burst into tears while her daughter, Arya, watched on nearby. Jaidalyn then headed straight outside to check out the ride, in an emotional moment captured on video by Jacqueline. The mom and daughter duo, who are now planning to become business partners in the future, wanted to share Jaidalyn's story in the hope of inspiring others who may be going through similar issues.

How global rallycross supercars hit 60 mph in 1.9 seconds
Regulations limit them to 2 liter engines and 45 millimeter turbocharger restrictor plates, which ultimately are the two factors limiting power. The engines produce about 600 horsepower, and over 650 lb-ft of torque, rocketing these machines from 0-60 in as fast as 1.9 seconds. 1.9 seconds! If we do the math, 60 mph is equivalent to 88 ft per second. 88/1.9 = 46.3 ft/sec squared, or if we divided by 32.2, it means the cars accelerate at over 1.4 longitudinal g’s!! That’s faster than any production vehicle, regardless of how much it costs. So how do they achieve such mind blowing acceleration? First and foremost, you’ll need all wheel drive and an absurd power to weight ratio. With a minimum weight of 2921 pounds including the driver and all fluids, the vehicles are carrying less than 5 pounds of weight for every horsepower the engine produces. All wheel drive is obviously critical for maximizing acceleration, but it’s also important that the engine torque finds its way to the wheels with the most traction. To do this, plate and ramp style mechanical limited slip differentials are used front and back. A shallow ramp angle in an LSD will lock up more easily under throttle. With the differential locked up, torque goes wherever it finds grip. A steep ramp angle will provide little lock-up, or if it’s as steep as 90 degrees, no lockup.
