Literally after more than a decade of harassments from my friends haha...

Doing this the right way guys... see? getting into motorcycling after getting married and having 2 kids... (lol, good news is.. mrs dark is in full support) She was the one who actually pushed me to go thru PRS and get the license.

My friends changed tactics last year and started to bug my wife instead of me and I think she's had enough...

congrats dark - PRS is a great school. I went through it in 2008 w Dat and Kramer. I still think about the awareness and vision training when I drive (and ride) today.

Thread content: little fried egg friday. stopped in at the old homestead to visit my gran this morning. Still living on her own at 94 in the house they bought in 1960

From what I heard, they found one, and it only took one event for someone to decide they no longer needed a fence at the venue.

Everything motorsports-related is now on MotorSportReg:

https://www.motorsportreg.com/

It really sux that there are no venues available for autox anywhere within easy reach of the Lower Mainland, and believe me -- the club representatives have been trying left right and center to find places.

Mission Raceway is looking to get an estimate on paving a large area at their venue, and I sincerely hope that whatever it turns out to be, it would enable Mission to host some autox there:

https://www.facebook.com/missionracewaypark/posts/10159541478830979

But for the time being, it is just track days and time attack. And even with those, everybody is trying to stay low key and not attract any unwanted attention at all...

I want to know the reason why Boundary Bay is a non-starter it’s like veiled in secrecy for some reason and I don’t get why.

In fact it’s always been a piss-off what a bunch of drama queens people who run auto cross clubs have historically been over the years... no transparency at all

I'm assuming down there you guys are used to bigger areas? In Kelowna they use part of the college parking lot and in Vernon they use the arena parking lot and they're both about 450ft x 250ft. Surely there's loads of those down there.

I've seen some small courses laid out at Lansdowne Mall, but I think liability is a massive concern in the lower mainland... anywhere with density the first thought is always "Will I get sued?"

best auto-x day i ever did was at the old annual PCA whistler weekend

took over lot 6 at blackcomb base and ran a super tight really fun (bumpy as hell) mini track.

you don't need a lot of room to have a good time. you do need insurance though - i'll bet that's the toughest part these days

i didn't.

I did almost own Greg's car above though. It's a '77 911s. He was on the fence about selling and i was impatiently waiting for him to decide. Ultimately it stayed in his family. :okay: That car won the concours in 2015, then won the auto-x the next day. Love that attitude, they were built to be driven hard.

did my first time night riding.

I can see why it is a restriction before your full class 6 license, honestly cant see shit even going at 60kph (well, just alot less time to react to manhole covers and what not).

Hehe, but just going slow, in low traffic at night is an experience for sure!

Gears are REALLY long. 2nd is good to 120km/h, top of 3rd is 185...

Oh and top of 4th is 257 according to a youtube video I just watched. First and second are great, 3rd and especially 4th could do with substantial shortening.

My k5 1000 1st gear indicated 161 on a taller that stock tire. Gears aren’t overly long, it just revs really high.

Is it just me or can nobody upload images? I’ll have to post an IG link.

I did 48days in mine in the 10 months that I owned mine. It was enough to justify getting rid of it ��. Im lucky enough to have a place to dry it out.

What's wrong with them?

10 min setup, 15 minute teardown, if you're quick. Even worst in the rain.
Climbing up and down got slightly annoying. Even worst in the rain.
Not being able to set it up in shade

But the real reason is I'm a lazy camper, I don't want go spend 30minutes setting up camp every time. Especially because I do lots of multi day, multi location trips. It got old.

My solution: Wedge Camper(bed mount), just tenting until I have it on.

Climbing up and down got slightly annoying.

Really? The tent I had took all of 2 minutes. You'd just take the cover off, flip it over, clip in the ladder and job done.

The real pain was trying to get it up on top of the vehicle and installed. I hated doing that.

I suppose models may vary.

didnt know it still takes 30 min to setup/take down...the only benefit is sleeping off the ground then? maybe a bit safer in bear country

Not necessarily just the tent, it's including everything else. I'm aiming for total setup/tear down time

I may be exaggerating on my end, I can have it open in 5 minutes with the poles if I hustle.

But it's essentially, Climb up - unzip the cover(first walk around), pull it off, unclip the buckles(second walk around), flip over, attach poles(3rd walk around), pull out the entry cover(this is the most annoying to done). Even worst when you have an SUV and everything is done above your head.

Those rooftop tents always seemed like BS to me lol

Not to shit on Toyota people as I’m sure there are plenty of experianced outdoors people who use them and do their “over landing” etc.

However everyone and their brother with a taco or a 4Runner seemed to snap up those rooftop tents, many who couldn’t light a fire out in the bush to save their lives lol..seemed like more of an aesthetic statement in that Toyota crowd than an actual functioning outdoors setup

I don't think owning a RTT and lighting a fire out in the bush necessarily go hand-in-hand. Everyone's use case is different. Some don't even go out into the bush and rather stick to bookable car camping spots in provincial parks (which a sedan could reach), the tent is just for added ease and comfort. Definitely a luxury item given their costs.

Everyones experience is different. The RTT takes realistically about 10 minutes to set up, same to break down. What I loved about it was getting some of the best sleeps I’ve had. No lumpy ground, no tarps, no tent bags and mattresses and all that junk. Climbing up and down never bothered me much. Also the fact they’re virtually weather proof is fantastic for BC where it rains so much.

Worst thing hands down is if it’s windy. I found my tent would blow like crazy. One time staying in osoyoos I brought it to sleep in (friends in the house, so hot in there). But at 2 am it was so fuckin windy my dog was freaking out and ended up going inside and slept on the floor. Granted I bet any tent would have been unbearable

The other thing to keep in mind with a RTT is that in places like Africa, and Australia you don't want to keep your tent on the ground.

Obviously it's much less important here, but having the mattress inside is very nice.

@speedstars wow that is stunningly OEM even down to the pea shooters.

I’d also suggest the jdm 1 piece headlights but I assume that’s crazy expensive nowadays

which bbk and how does it affect regen?


I took a spirited drive to Squamish a week ago with the Model X Long Range and set regen to standard on the way there and set to low on the way back just to feel what differences were. Going there was amazing. I might have had to touch the friction brakes five times on the way there but regen was strong enough to set the rotation of the vehicle in tight corners. Deceleration is equivalent to normal braking in traffic to a red light. In high speed corners, regen had just the right amount of deceleration control to literally “trail brake” through to apex then power out hard. There was very minimal upset to the chassis thanks for low centre of gravity and the throttle control that feels equivalent to turbo vs NA ICE but in this scenario, comparing NA ICE to EV.

On the way back with regen set to low, I immediately felt like I had to use the friction brakes before corners when I was approaching them moderate aggressively. Low regen on a Tesla is somewhat like engine braking at 3000-5000 RPM with a 6 cylinder. The times when I needed to rapidly slow down I could really tell I was hauling a 5500lbs vehicle down in speed with the friction brakes but they are big enough not to make you feel like you won’t decelerate in time.

1/3 of the way into going back I set regen back to standard. The experience is far better and the control with one foot is like left foot braking with one foot. There is an amazing level of trail brake control and being able to widen or tighten rotation without delay is unlike what my E46 M3 can achieve. It’s quite a different feeling that cannot be replaced with any ICE once you can trust and grasp how an electric drivetrain operates. The only thing I miss with a Tesla is the sound an ICE makes as it powers out of apex. But it’s not bad with this car because it just uses brute electron force to torque your way to happiness.

When you brake in a Tesla with the brake pedal, does it not ramp up regen until it's maxxed out, then put down the anchors with the friction brakes?

Or is low regen vs standard regen drive so differently and you brake harder in low regen that you end up using the friction brakes?

Friction brakes are completely independent of regen.

Regen happens from the electric motors reversing polarity so as you ease off throttle, regeneration gets stronger and stronger for one pedal driving so long as you set it that way. When you need to stop harder than regen can in either standard or low, that’s when you use friction brakes to assist.

In the city you’ll use friction brakes for those surprise moments to slow the vehicle down quickly, for example, yellow lights or someone cutting in front of you and slowing down quicker than regen can.

A problem with regen vs friction is a majority of drivers will barely use friction brakes causing them to rust or wear out prematurely. The term “use it or lose it” comes to mind. My driving style I don’t need to worry about that. I still use friction brakes when I’m using the fun pedal to unnecessarily accelerate quicker than ever required. LOL

With Toyota, when you use the regular brake pedal it ramps up regen first, then throws down the anchors once you exceed the regen threshold.

It sounds like Tesla's brake pedal only actuates the friction brakes and does nothing for changing regen?

Correct. The throttle pedal changes regen as you ease off. Fully off for max regen which can bring you to a comfy stop. Partially off to vary regen/deceleration. It’s nice to drive in the city that way. Throttle placement makes speed control very linear feeling.

Hmmmmm.....

So much this. I'm careful with money, except if I want a toy and I can easily afford it, i'm going to buy it. There's this analogy I always like that says those timers that have sand that flows between two chambers is like life, the top one is time/health, and the bottom one is money. As the money fills up, the time/health depletes. No point in having millions in the bank when you're 75 and can't travel, can't really enjoy nice cars, or really anything...

A little bit of maintenance and weight reduction paired up with "skinnies" equalled to some great passes this weekend at mission.

Smashed my PB all 4 passes

There are only a few people in the world who managed to run a 10 sec pass on stock turbos without nitrous or meth. I might be joining the club very soon

How bit of a difference do the skinnies make? I understand every little bit counts, is it the weight or is it the drag? If we are doing every little bit, would some covers on them make sense?

dorian
06-05-2021, 07:30 PM
Everyone was telling me that they do make a 2-3mph difference, but these are cheap skinnies and being 17x4.5 they still weigh 23.4 lbs. For reference my apex arc8s 19x9 weigh 19 lbs. Adding tires i was still saving weight but only 1 lb per side, but i guess its the contact patch that helps since i did gain 2-3mph. I also removed pass. seat which is a solid 50-60lbs which i never did before, so that was good for half a tenth. Ill try go get a pair of 5 series spares which are 17x4 and only weigh around 16-17lbs and see if that gives me a bit more to get in the 10s

dorian
06-05-2021, 07:36 PM
WOW, stock turbo?

yes, pretty much maxed out turbos but still holding 22psi with no smoke or rattle. had the same tune for 3 years now.

i only know of one other person that went 10s with stock turbos in the states but his car is completely gutted down to 2600lbs, im at 3350-3400. He went 10.6 and then 10.2 adding nitrous

slip was 11.10 @ 123.33

dragy is very accurate, never seen it miss by more than 2/100s up or down

if i remember correctly timeslip doesnt measure your mph at the end of the track, its between 1,254 feet and 1,320 feet, the average speed between the two lights produces the mph on your timeslip

it can hold 650 hp/ 600 tq. Torque is the killer here. i have a spare trans with 110k on it with new fluids ready to go if mine blows. its pretty expensive to upgrade the stock 6AT so people usually do a manual swap or upgrade to a 8 speed ( new kits just came out so you can use f series trans )

Transmissions have gotten so good these days it's crazy... like there are so many factory turbo cars running around with automatics that are damn near indestructible.

I see some Ford guys even locally with the EcoBoost V6 running insane power and numbers on the Explorer ST and not even touching the tranny at all.

But everything is in Japanese and pretty much useless. Sure I can replace but I lose functions. Plus apparently JDM cars often don't come with cruise control which is something I use daily. One of the reasons why I sold mine

yours should be more than that number, right? didn't know your is a AT.
the 8spd any better? (heavier and shift quicker?)

i dynoed at 460 whp 530 wtq

manuals cant come even close to 11.0 on stock turbos, hard to launch, easy to break axles.

There are manuals with 600 whp struggling to get into the 10s.

8 speeds can hold more power and shift faster.

Yes. It's partly why it has not seen daylight in 2 years or so.

The car is 100% legal and safe except for the non-covered Aux lights (I have covers). I can't risk getting it towed to a yard if someone thinks a car from 1969 came with Cats. I was actually in the process of getting Modified Collectors plates until the guy doing my inspection died halfway through the inspection... that's a story for another day.

Long story short I finally decided to get my car inspected for collectors plates at a shop. I'm not sure what the rules are now, but back then you just had to get a special form filled out by a certified shop.

Anyways, spoke to a few shops and finally found one that kinda knew what he was looking at and had him do an inspection. Dropped the car off. Came back at the end of the day and the place was surrounded by ambulances. The poor guy had a sudden heart attack after putting my car on the lift and didn't make it. Shop closed down shortly after.

Super clean focus SVT. Only traded it in because my wife and I were having a child, wanted something bigger. I really wanted to keep it, daily it and use the RS for track/weekend. But we just didn’t have anyone who could store a car for us. So we traded it in when we got our Ford Flex. Then 2 weeks later we found out we were moving and could have kept it. Fucking kills me inside to see this.

Remember when some people used to put the pedobear sticker on their cars? Wasn’t there a story on here where they were crossing the border and the CBSA officer thought they might be a pedophile because of the sticker? Lol

I have a family member in the CBSA. They were having a massive department meeting (this is probably 2012?) and pedobear was a topic of discussion, legit saying it’s a pedo ring and a marker for other pedo’s.

He put his hand up and said “no, it’s just an Internet thing” and not a single ranking officer even gave him a seconds thought. A few of them around the same younger age were all just like ?????

for me personally it was more of kids thing. My daughter is grade 3 and my son is kindergarten.

One of the other joys of being a younger parent is that I have the excuse to re-watch my fav cartoons and re-live the excitment of Dragon Ball Z and OG Pokemon and Digimon with my kids hahaha.

(My wife knows... I enjoy them more than my kids lool)....

I also work in signs and graphics, so its a work perk thing that I get to print and install decals on my cars hahaha

Long story short I finally decided to get my car inspected for collectors plates at a shop. I'm not sure what the rules are now, but back then you just had to get a special form filled out by a certified shop.

Anyways, spoke to a few shops and finally found one that kinda knew what he was looking at and had him do an inspection. Dropped the car off. Came back at the end of the day and the place was surrounded by ambulances. The poor guy had a sudden heart attack after putting my car on the lift and didn't make it. Shop closed down shortly after.

No such inspection is required, that old guy was about to take you for a ride.

Just read this over, fill out the form, take the pics and send it all in. https://www.icbc.com/vehicle-registration/collector-mods/Pages/Collector-vehicles.aspx

His car is modified and pre-1974... he wants these plates and it requires an inspection (I just had to do one too):

They changed "Modified Collector" from cars built in 1958 to 1974 just 4 years ago in 2017. So when he said "back then" he meant in the last 4 years, or he has another really old car.

I wish they were Weld wheels ! i think welds are around 6-700 USD a wheel, and 4-5lbs lighter than these. My car is a budget build, cant drop 2k on skinnies :) These are vision wheels 17x4.5 18.8Lbs. I've since switched to 5 series spares 17x4 16.4lbs. I def prefer the look of these so i might go back after i run 10s.
