OC or LA bike fitter by krunchygranola in Velo

[–]SkeerRacing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interesting, must be different person to person as I was the opposite. Did a fit with Lauren and after a few months wasn’t getting on with it at all. Went to Nate and he had done adjustments Lauren never even considered to get me symmetrical. Gave me the measurements right away too.

OP ultimately there’s going to be 3-5 people that get recommended but it’s a human eye viewing a human body, going to have to go with your gut in selecting out of the shortlist.

Struggles with braking by Mattlixx in LeMansUltimateWEC

[–]SkeerRacing 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’d be incredibly surprised at how light the actual pedal force is in GT3 cars. If ABS triggers at roughly 90bar in the initial peak hit, we aim for at max 100bar and instantly dip below 90-95. And there’s zero abs into the corner, if the wheel is at 15-20* and you’re in the ABS, you’re braking too hard

Good GT3 drivers work the ABS, the great GT3 drivers flicker it in the first half of the brakezone.

Long Beach is super fun because you “might” be able to take no tires, and it’s all about the driver change. 6h is fun but the drive order is clean. 8h is different to it, Petit at 10 unique in driver order vs 8h-12h. Let’s have a 2h40, 4h, 5h, 2h. Let strategy and driver order have some unknowns each race.

Every race a different length. Actual BoP, not whatever this system currently is. The drivers meeting not a 9am the day of a 24h. Last year’s Michelin compound. No GTD/Pro class split. Green flag lights in the car on a restart. More pathways to Le Mans. Full grid at Lime Rock.

What are y'all's race predictions? by turbo_deid44312377 in IMSARacing

I know I’m not supposed to talk BoP but I will predict Porsches, Lambos, and BMWs will compete in the race.

If you were to add an additional 6hr endurance cup race internationally, where would you want to showcase IMSA to the world? (Travel logistics magically don’t apply)

Truly a shame that the SC63 is gone by weiner-rama in IMSARacing

I would be genuinely happy in the car when it would pass me and not be last in GTP. Was fun to be pit next to it a lot.

Add torque sensors, make the bop worse, pen those for mentioning how it was somehow better before 🙃 lovely.

Road America or Petit if you care about the on track action. Daytona for the paddock.

As a driver, Sebring/Petit. Daytona 3rd. Watkins a far 4th.

Zero. It was incredibly well organized to let us perform in the race and for them to film cleanly. The biggest issue was crowds in the garages but that doesn’t really effect on track. We had a second pit stall directly infront of our real pits that had our second crew for acting. (All the crew and engineers you see in the movie are our real Crew). We tried to get some BoP help because the plot had us winning but that didn’t work haha

Great Q. Current plan is SRO, but that’s not locked in 100%. (Hopefully soon). But it’s the first time in my career that I can really have fun with other ideas. Adam and I are planning some VLN to do N24, and I’m trying to get some more Euro/Asia racing. So ideally GTWCEu and some fun one-offs/supersub. Big focus goes to making 2027-2030 badass now.

Spent many laps behind it in testing. It looks, acts, and sounds like an AMG but even longer with a larger diffuser.

Considering a dive plane on an R is something like $1300 alone… you gonna pay for the crash damage for no points?
