Jock itch (tinea cruris) is a fungus, the same one that causes athlete's foot and scalp ringworm. The groin area is the perfect place for the fungi to grow and cause a fungal infection because it is moist, warm and dark.
The camshaft lift is the resultant net rise of the valve from its seat. The farther the valve rises from its seat the more airflow can be provided, which is generally more beneficial. Greater lift has some limitations.
Lift is an artificial force manipulated by pilot; it is generated through the wings, acts perpendicular to the relative wind and wingspan. The theoretical concept that summarizes the direction and force of lift is the centre of pressure.
