Images . . . just what do they do? What exactly turns the lead of a pencil on paper into something that is no longer just the lead of a pencil on paper!? As soon as I look at this diagram, I see a race car, specifically a stock car like those in NASCAR racing. Given the fact that a three year old can possibly identify this picture/diagram as such, does it even need to have labels? Does it really need to be a diagram? For the learning three year old...probably. In this case, however, they serve a excellent purpose.Which labeled parts allow people in general to immediately identify this picture as a stock car? First, it has wheels; unless all four tires have fallen off, nobody in their right mind will draw a car without wheels. Also, there is a tail pipe. Easy to recognize and really cool because its a flame thrower! The label titled "car" obviously does not set this car apart from any other car; neither does the label "hood," "steering wheel," "hub," or "seat" make this car unique. Instead, there are really only three labels that make this car have sweet aerodynamics, roll bars, good downforce, a top-notch chassis, special interior with a five point seat belt, amazing suspension, and specially designed wheel studs. These labels give it the roar of the engine as it speeds along the runway at an average of 160 m/p/h reaching speeds of 200 m/p/h guzzling racing fuel at a shocking rate of 1 gallon for every four miles with a 850 horse power engine worth anywhere from $45,000 to $60,000 dollars brand new! These labels are "net/window," "window," and "numbers." As a whole I saw just a car. Once I saw the number 44, I knew I wasn't looking at some old school car. NO, THIS IS A NAS"CAR"!!! Three little parts and labels-all that is needed to take this car from ordinary to extraordinary.
