The market is flooded with styles and makes of golf balls. Golf ball manufacturers do, however, have regulations that they must abide by in the manufacturing of their golf balls which is the size and weight of the golf balls.
Golf balls are a round, diameter shape balls that according to rule, must meet the standards of being at least 42.67 millimeters or 1,680 inches in diameter.
Because smaller balls have the tendency to fly further and have less resistance than larger balls most manufacturers of golf balls produce the smallest size allowable.
The weight of the golf ball is the next regulated rule that golf ball manufacturers must follow. A golf ball must not exceed a weight of 45.93 grams or 1,620 ounces. Most golf ball manufacturers will produce the maximum allowed weight due to the heavier balls flying further with less air resistance.
Knowing the size and weight of the golf ball can help you in your game such as those players with a higher handicap can take advantage of the balls that weigh more and are the smallest in size go further through the air. While those flashy balls may make your game look more attractive the proper size and weight will make you have a better game.

F1's popularity has led to discussions at the very heart of the sport on how best to capitalise on their extremely valuable product. Some in the F1 hierarchy have been keen for a move to pay tv through the likes of Sky and their counterparts in other countries. Pay TV, as proven with the Premier League and the English Cricket Team, generates significantly higher returns on broadcasting rights than their free to air rivals.
The flip side of that coin, however, is that free-to-air television has a much greater reach, and with so much competition between sports for public attention, the greater numbers of people who can watch Formula 1, the better it is for the teams, and crucially, their sponsors.
One argument has been that pay TV is able to invest greater sums in the coverage of the sport, spearheading things like HD and 3D coverage. TV digital, however, means that most free-to-air broadcasters can match HD coverage, so this argument is rapidly becoming obsolete.
With the end of current broadcasting contracts in the UK rapidly arriving, a new deal between F1 and broadcasters was required, and they appear to have come to an agreement that offers the best of both worlds. From 2012, every Formula 1 race weekend, including practice, qualifying and, of course, the races, will be shown live and full on Sky, with the current broadcaster – the BBC – retaining the rights to half of the races, and full radio coverage.

1. When preparing for a cleaning operation, start by turning off the fuel valve and removing the carburetter from the engine. Your vehicle’s maintenance manual should be able to tell you how to disconnect the carburetter – but if you’re in any doubt then call in a knowledgeable friend or professional mechanic.
2. Open the carburetter, again by following the instructions in your manual. Once opened, you can allow excess fuel to drain into a bucket. At this point, you should be able to judge the condition of the carburetter by examining the interior and testing the needle to check that it moves smoothly. If the needle is sticking then it may need to be removed and cleaned.
3. Use specialist carburetter or breaks cleaner to flush out the fuel lines, paying particular attention to any build up in the lines which may be obstructing the flow of petrol. If you’re unsure of what to look out for then it may be worth using an automatic tester to assess the condition of your carburetter.
4. When your cleaning operation is complete, replace the carburetter in the engine, making sure that fuel lines are re-attached. You can test the engine immediately to check your success, but remember that the carburetter will take a little time to fill up again after being drained.

Car racing may be a very exciting sport but unfortunately it is also one that is prone to more mishaps and accidents. At the speeds with which car racers drive with such powerful vehicles, the chance of injuries to the driver is multifold. This has prompted everyone involved in the field from the racing officials to drivers and of course the safety personnel to look into ways of minimizing the chances of mishaps. The back and the neck of the driver are the most vulnerable to injuries and after continuous and dedicated research; several safety devices have been included in the racing cars.
The Head And Neck Support (HANS) device is a part of this safety measure. Several racing organizations have made this device mandatory in cars racing on their tracks and hope to minimize fatalities on the racing track. The HANS essentially is a semi hard collar made of Kevlar, carbon fibers and other elements. The harness that holds the upper body holds the HANS too. Flexible tethers on either side of the collar are attached to the helmet thus holding it in place and preventing it from coming forward due to the impact of a crash. The HANS device does cost a fortune but in its life saving perspective, it is just priceless.

Fortunately for car racing enthusiasts, temporary street circuits offer the much needed break and training. Temporary street circuit car racing is quite different when compared to the permanent road car racing. In the former less grip is required. The reason is that street circuit organizers need to lay their own rubber each year since the rubber of one year will definitely not hold till the next year considering the amount of cars racing on it as well as the time factor.
For this purpose, the cars racing on the temporary street circuit has a slightly different build. For instance, for day one of the circuit softer tires would be helpful. It would be better if you could tie up with the tire developer and have a made-to-order tire from the best compound that can run well considering the different aspects of the track such as rougher surface, higher curbing, wet conditions as the tire needs of individual track change quite considerably. Another characteristic of the temporary street circuit car racing is these are narrower when compared to regular racing tracks. That is the reason drivers face a challenging situation when passing or lapping slower vehicles and have to get into the follow-the-leader attitude.
