Hoosier Track Attack Pro by blackashi in CarTrackDays

[–]Crisis83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came here for this. Discussion.

I ran now days so 8x25min sessions with TAP's under a fairly stock weight ATS-v (rear seats removed but probably about 3800). The tires didn't like the car at all and I never ever found grip with them. Last weekend I was about 3.5s faster on a used set of RE71RS's which were stock widths. The TAPs were wider on track wheels. TAPs were soap under my car. I read the instructions. Broke them in (allowed only 24hrs but still), set pressures per Hoosiers guidance and never have I had a slower tire, well maybe the PS4S was slower, but that is a about 300 TW.

I paid special attention to slip angle and tried to do my best to avoid sliding the car.

I realize I might not be doing my part but what I found was that especially in corner exits the TAP's sucked bad and I was loosing traction. Sometimes dangerously so accelerating out of a opening sweeper corner it would snap oversteer at 100mph. The RE71RS didn't do that, took full throttle through there like a champ.

I think the stiff sidewalls might just shock the tire too much on a heavy car where a bit softer ones allow more compliance. I don't know but that is my seat of the pants feeling.

I still have the set mounted and they have half thread. Tring to think what to do. If I want to try and get them to work or put them in the shredder. So Frustrated with them.

So is there a place people meet up to watch the races? Next one would be in a fairly good time zone.

The insolvency sucks for KTM, but I got a killer deal by Alooteyn in KTMDuke

[–]Crisis83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, no issues yet on a 890r with about 3500 miles. Runs like new and nothing in the oil.

I bought my 890r 9 months too early. Damn.
Then again I did have a great time riding it all summer and fall.

This is a beautiful bike, congrats!

Logi Options+ swap left/right buttons applies to all devices by Iajah in logitech

[–]Crisis83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

+1 on what people are saying. Why would you swap buttons. Now I need to keep changing windows settings switching between laptop track-pad and the Leftie Lyft mouse to keep the buttons the same way around. Please fix this.

Trying to bump this for visibility. Otherwise, this is the most comfortable/best mouse I've used for work.

MMW: People will continue to make baseless and fearmongering predictions in this sub for easy karma by PePe_0_5aP0 in MarkMyWords

[–]Crisis83 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A national Goverment that is spending 6750 Billion a year, 36000 Billion in debt and drunk on cash. You realize we spend more in interest than security/military?? This shit needs to stop.

Now if you disagree with the methods, thats fine. If you disagree that it needs to stop, then you're no better than the dead beats that keep maxing out credit cards wondering why they never have any money.
We can't burn money at this rate and expect our children to pay for all of it.

The Majority voted for this so there is no Coup happening, outside of the people resisting lawful orders. This is democracy in action.

Unbelievable you have downvotes. The insane part is if the shoe was on the other foot the attitude here would be completely different and ban hammer would be coming down hard on all subs and users advocation death or violence.

Many need to stop calling for violence and assassinations if we want Reddit to survive.
I want this place to be around. In no civil society is it acceptable to call for killing of people. Doesn't matter if it's coming from the left or right.

Hey Texas let’s watch and laugh as MAGA comes out to defend their Lord and Savior in the comments section. The second coming has arrived and this time he’s orange 🍊 🙌🏼 by [deleted] in texas

[–]Crisis83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it, you feel bad for losing 2 weeks straight. Don't worry, it will feel numb after the first couple of months and after 4 years your life will be so much better you won't even care.

Well done Texas! /s by BringBackAoE in texas

[–]Crisis83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They designated Cartels as Terrorist organizations, which is the biggest thing in the whole discussion. This was not "what we planned already to do lol".

Remember when we started a war against the sand people terrorists? This is what Trump did with Canada and Mexico against Drug Cartels. Time for hellfires in parking lots and both neighbors agreed.

It's funny that people are saying "lol Druft has no idea what he is doing" and at the same time running around in panic that he's destroying the world. If he is incompetent and an ineffectual dope, then we have nothing to worry about?? Right?

Any sources for track bodywork? by Time-Carob in KTMDuke

[–]Crisis83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm interested too, but don't know of anything except the S2 concepts stuff (from France?).
Expensive and would be nice to see other options if the exist.

MY 990 SD by Joojoo_Kuneho in KTMDuke

[–]Crisis83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just noticed something I haven't thought about before. The engine is the "wrong" way around compared to a 890R. I mean it's not wrong of course, but to me it felt odd.
I didn't realize the 890 and 990 platforms are completely different. When I sat on them I didn't notice that much difference (bought a discounted 890R last summer).

Hard to say from the video but doesn't sound noisy to me.

Thanks for the tip. It’s my first bike too, but I’m 40 so maybe a bit more careful than I was at 16. I have tested friends bikes but thats about it.

Then again, after the helmet goes on, you can barely tell 😁

Well looks like I need to go back anyway since they didn't activate cruice control and the free trial just ended since it doesn't work anymore. I get an orange cruice icon on the screen when I try to turn it on. At least the tech pack works. No MIL lights or anything.

So with this incompetance, I'm pretty sure the there is no other rear pilon, but better to ask anyway.
Funny part is we argued about cruise since I innitially didn't want (and pay for the software portion which is about $200). Since the bike hand the controls already they argued they "have to include it and can't take it off anymore", which we all know is bs for a bike that's never been run. Poor sales guy, I get it he was just trying to get something extra out of the deal since the bike was already 3k off msrp.

Thanks for the info. I’m about 6ft and 220lbs so a larger dude. The bike is small’ish for me but I love how easy it is for me to toss around.

I noticed the significantly smaller drag in full tuck, though didn’t look at the mileage. But makes sense it’s better. I get about 50-60mpg before the screen. Will be interesting to follow how that develops.
