Of course I fast forwarded the electric cars. EV is the death knell of motorsports. It matters not that they’re sometimes faster. They are boring.
@JonPowersDrives22 күн бұрын
I'm sorry Robert but I have to disagree with you about that. In fact, EVs are the evolution of motorsports. Combustion motors will always have a special place in all of our hearts, but unfortunately the KW/Kg of an electric motor cannot be matched by a combustion motors. Combustion motors resonate with our souls - literally with the resonant frequency of our cells. But I'll ask - have you ever driven a model S Plaid? Because it is the opposite of boring. Additionally, with 67% less powertrain components, electric powertrains are much more reliable than combustion, opening up more sustainable motorsports operations for individuals without a huge operating budget.

@@JonPowersDrives no heel and toe gear changes. No blipping on the downshift. No aural heaven. All computer controlled. Totally boring. Going fast(est) is certainly a motorsport goal. But when it’s meaningless, then that’s the end. The human machine interface is THE most important aspect of the spirit of racing . Remove that and you remove the passion. As someone who has road raced motorcycles at national level, I have the experience to make the point. Gear less go karts are the starting point for racing drivers. Not the end point. When formula E started. I watched it for nearly two laps (even that was a struggle). Then I turned it off. The goal of EV’s is autonomous operation. So watching unattended white goods will not be a priority or passion for people. I’m glad to have seen GroupB rally. Not the fastest, but the greatest rally era. The v12 and v10 formula 1. World Superbike from the start and through to the mid 2000’s was awesome. 500cc Grand Prix motorcycles. World Speedway. Motorcycle trials. Not one of the above will EVER be equaled by EV’s. Enjoy the downfall of Motorsport. 🏍💨😜😃
Do you use 4 front wheels or leave them as they are when going to 32s?

Is there anyway to get the turbo to spool and hear it? Blow off valve? What can you do with things to make them sweet?
@JonPowersDrivesАй бұрын
You could do an air intake that is open to the environment but then you'd be at risk of water ingress. Best way to make them sweet is just put a through hull exhaust. they sound like racecars

I have been searching for footage of an old FSAE car, I believe from University of Wisconsin in the early 2000s. It's engine was a hybrid 500cc V8 built from two 250cc 4cylinders, which turned over 20,000rpm. Does anyone have any footage of this car? It didn't perform very well. I was told it DNF'd on two events. I would love to hear the engine.

You're right dude , the gear tunnel is very very cool . And as you point out if walking around it your gonna hop your knee off it . Really it's a tough trade off , it looks cool folder up , but folded down its sharp edges are a big downside , would be cool if it had somehow a rubber bead all the way around or something similar.
@JonPowersDrives Жыл бұрын
I loved the gear tunnel. You have to crawl through it to truly understand just how large it is :) Would be perfect for skis or snowboards. It would also be nice if they had an accessory to divide the space in half or into thirds so that when you put luggage that isn't super large in there, that it doesn't fly around when you take corners. I put my onewheel in there and it was rolling from side to side pretty badly.

It will be interesting to see what the CT actually prices out at when it comes out. Obviously the market doesn’t agree with your “is it worth the money” assessment as they are going for nearly double their retail price aftermarket. BTW, charge port can be open with a capacitive touch on the black bumper. Look for the 3 bars “hamburger” and simply touch them.
@JonPowersDrives Жыл бұрын
Yea, we will see the CT pricing. A ton of people want the Rivian, and right now all the individuals who are able to spend more are still picking them up as they're highly unique and relatively high quality for a new company. Their value proposition is really good now, but as more trucks enter the picture it'll decrease. I know the chargeport could be opened by capacitive touch, because I heard of people pressure washing their Rivians and the chargeport opening. However, I didn't know where to press :)
