O novo Century CR7 T1+ já é realidade

O carro do construtor da África do Sul que até agora só tinha versões de seu buggy 4x2 CR6 E CR6-T como o que ganhou a edição de 2023 do Rally dos Sertões ,está desenvolvendo um T1+ 4x4 para competir com as Toyota T1+, Ford T1+, Prodrive Hunter T1+, e Audi Q RS e-Tron no Dakar e outras provas de rally raid a partir de 2024.

O modelo já esteve em uma prova de rally raid na África do Sul.

Listos para sorprender: Century Racing tendrá equipo oficial de dos autos con Baragwanath y Serradori en el Dakar 2023 además de ocho autos privados incluyendo equipos Astara y Coronel

Century Racing no se rinde. Un preparador más pequeño y especializado, basado en Sudáfrica, viene entregando prototipos para rally-raid desde 1996 con comienzos modestos, pero con metas ambiciosas. Poco a poco ha ido aumentando la complejidad y competitividad de sus prototipos, hasta llegar a sorprender con una victoria de etapa con Mathieu Serradori en el Dakar 2020. Buenas presentaciones en fechas del Mundial FIA y en el muy competitivo Campeonato Sudafricano de Cross Country (SARRC) han alentado a Century, que irá con su programa más ambicioso hasta el momento buscando dar una que otra sorpresa. Serán 10 prototipos Century CR6 los que saldrán a la ruta en Arabia Saudita, incluyendo un equipo oficial de dos nuevos prototipos de última generación CR6-T para Mathieu Serradori y Brian Baragwanath. 

Mucho ha progresado Century desde que un consistente Mathieu Serradori terminara en la octava posición general luego de ganar sorpresivamente la Etapa 8 del Dakar 2020. El auto se ha mostrado cada vez más competitivo tanto en el Dakar como en el Campeonato Sudafricano y en 2022, Serradori terminó en la séptima posición pese a que el Century no es un auto T1+. Baragwanath debutó con una P32 en 2021 y terminó P14 en 2022. Algunos problemas mecánicos han sido el principal dolor de cabeza de Century y eso esperan haber solucionado con un nuevo motor completamente nuevo para este Dakar en sus prototipos oficiales pilotados por Baragwanath y Serradori, con un impulsor 2,9 litros V6 biturbo Audi proveniente del Audi RS4. 

Este potente motor de 444 HP estará acompañado con un ECU Motec y entregará tracción a los ejes traseros de este buggy 4x2 a través de una caja secuencial Sadev SL924. Adicionalmente al motor, se ha trabajado en el recorrido de suspensión llegando a 440 mm que dan al buggy con neumáticos BF Goodrich de 17 pulgadas grandes oportunidades de sorprender. Además, se ha incorporado inflado y gato hidráulico automático, para evitar perder minutos valiosos con la punta.

Baragwanath contará con Leonard Cramer como navegante, en tanto que Serradori repetirá la exitosa dupla con el ex-motard Loic Minaudier.

También tendrán algo que decir las tripulaciones privadas que pilotan Century CR6 de la anterior generación, con el motor de 7 litros V8 Chevrolet LS7 derivado del Corvette. Los que más ruido podrían hacer son los autos españoles del equipo Astara, con Laia Sanz, Carlos Checa, Oscar Fuertes y  Sergio Vallejo al volante. También están los siempre alegres hermanos Tim y Tom Coronel con un Century de su equipo Coronel Racing que tendrá para esta edición un segundo auto en Michel Kremer. Finalmente, dos equipos privados franceses tendrán a Yannick Panagiotis y Antoine Galland al volante.

Seguro estas tripulaciones poblarán buena parte del Top 20 y con algo de suerte podrían pelear más arriba en este Dakar.

CRACKS KNUCKLES #background painting is ''cain smiting abel'' by sebastiano and marco ricci #scott and gordon's poses are taken from ''the reconciliation of esau and jacob'' by paul peter reubens #aaaand the caption is taken from ''the plagues'' from prince of egypt! which is sung by moses and rameses! who are brothers!!!!! #this post is a whole christian imagery. erm. my bad #was thinking of drawing lady and thomas as the pieta statue too..... might draw that out when I get the motivation #also did you know that sodor got hit by christianization in the 5th century and built its first church in the 10th century #really makes me wonder if the history of missionary there is as bleak as the ones in many countries of color or not #I should do more reading! anywayssss enjoy the pic (sniff)

people are being willfully ignorant and xenophobic towards argentines, harassing them and hiding behind the myth perpetuated by the usa that it's a white country so here i am again trying to bring in actual sources to dispute this claim. nevermind that trying to bring in nuance to a discussion on the internet is like talking to a wall

erika edwards is an academic, the only person from usa that i've seen discuss this subject with the respect and the sensibility it deserves. the matter of race in argentina is just as complex as it is anywhere else and deserves to be treated as such.

#it is so exhausting to read comments like those every day. you dont know my country my culture nor my history you dont even know where #its located #and to hear this from usamericans and europeans as if theyre on higher moral ground #and its them who have been stepping over us for centuries. have some respect #arg tag #race

La Mode illustrée, no. 13, 26 mars 1876, Paris. Toilettes de Mme Fladry, 43, rue Richer. Chapeaux de Mme Deloffre, 4, r. de l'Echiquier. Collection of the Rijksmuseum, Netherlands

Toilette de courses. Jupe en faye vert Nil, sans garnitures. Tunique en cachemire de l'Inde de même couleur, ouverte par derrière et se croisant, sous une agrafe tenant à une chaîne d'argent. Grande poche-portefeuille carrée, placée très-bas. La tunique est entièrement bordée de trois lacets d'argent. Corsage avec basques, retenu par une ceinture de cuir vert, incrustée d'argent. Les lacets d'argent simulent un capuchon pointu et des revers repliés sur les manches et les basques du dos.

Toilette de promenade. Jupon en faye, nuance tourterelle foncée, garnie d'un large volant plissé que surmontent par derrière plusieurs rangées de grands plis. Tunique en livonienne, nuance tourterelle plus claire que le jupon, se boutonnant sur le côté. La garniture se compose de plusieurs biais de faye pareille au jupon et d'une frange treillagée des deux teintes. Casaque pareille à la tunique. Le devant de droite forme un angle très-prononcé, qui croise largement pour se boutonner. Plastron en faye de même teinte que le jupon; manches pareilles au corsage avec sous-manches pareilles au jupon.

—

Ensemble for the races. Nile green faye skirt, without trimmings. Indian cashmere tunic of the same color, open at the back and crossing, under a clasp holding on to a silver chain. Large square wallet pocket, placed very low. The tunic is entirely bordered with three silver laces. Bodice with basques, held by a green leather belt, inlaid with silver. Silver laces simulate a pointed hood and folded cuffs on the sleeves and back peplums.

Walking ensemble. Petticoat in faye, dark dove shade, trimmed with a large pleated flounce topped by several rows of large pleats from behind. Livonian tunic, dove shade lighter than the petticoat, buttoning on the side. The trim consists of several faye biases similar to the petticoat and a trellised fringe of both shades. Coat similar to the tunic. The right front forms a very pronounced angle, which crosses widely to button. Faye bib of the same color as the petticoat; sleeves similar to the bodice with under-sleeves similar to the petticoat.

an example of medieval racism: a depiction of the last judgement, with an angel expelling a black man from the blessed, all depicted as white, guiding him towards the damned, all depicted as having darker skin tones

miniature in the "livre de la vigne nostre seigneur", france, c. 1450–1470

source: Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS. Douce 134, fol. 58v

(some trustworthy academic resources on the topic of medieval racism would be “The Invention of Race in the European Middle Ages” by Geraldine Heng, or “Black Metaphors: How Modern Racism Emerged from Medieval Race-Thinking” by Cord J. Whitaker)

idk who needs this reminder but uh race is a social construct, ethnicity is not. we can use DNA to determine the ethnicity of someone post mortem, we cannot determine their race that way. using facial reconstruction techniques we can estimate what they may have looked like and compare that with definitions of race from their lifetime, but even that is shaky ground to walk on.

that being said: many ethnic groups do not rely on blood quantum and in fact many actively reject it (Indigenous peoples especially). ethnicity is not solely genetic. its culture, its language, its customs, its religion, its clothing. so when you see someone argue that the concept of a Jewish ethnicity is fake or propaganda, they are willfully ignoring the fact that Jewish culture in the diaspora is diverse and unique, and also makes diaspora Jews distinct from the populations of the countries they now live in. being Jewish significantly changes your experience of any given country because you blend your culture with your country’s. because of this, we have yiddish and ladino and other judeo-languages, we have diaspora groups, we have unique practices all over the world because of our unique ethnic background.

and still, if you sample DNA from a Jew in Romania and a Jew in England and a Jew in Ethiopia, their DNA will be considerably more similar than their own DNA compared to goyim from their home country. the ethno in ethnoreligion has meaning, and denying it minimizes Jewish identity at best.

#can u tell i have a degree in sociology #sociology of race and ethnicity #phenotype and genotype are different things! #blood quantum is racist bullshit! #but that doesn’t mean we should ignore the existence of genotypic ethnic markers! #they can be useful for anthropological reasons and also can influence a person’s life significantly #ex. i have a heart condition that is not only predominantly found in ashkenazi jews #but genome sequencing has allowed us to trace the gene mutation that caused this disease back to one (1) russian rabbi centuries ago #‘russian’ meaning what is now russia #idk what the political map looked like back then #anyway #sociological misinformation will not survive on my watch #jumblr

Tolkien wrote "half-elf" a couple times, and D&D was like "y'all mind if I bring back the sistema de castas"

#cosas mias #and when Tolkien wrote elves and half-elves while he was still as racist as one could expect from an Englishman born in South Africa #he was implying more of a connection to something supernatural (elves are more akin to what we could call 'fae') #it was D&D that turned them into full Races and Species with numerical stats in the style of XIX century anthropology #which speaks a lot about modern fantasy #fantasy #worldbuilding
