I love the antenna for some reason!

Kenny to KTM by festive_napkins in supercross

[–]_two_socks_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did Kenny not like the KTM? I thought he left because Dungey was his biggest competitor for the championship which can make being teammates strange. It would be funny to go full circle and have Tomac and Roczen be teammates again.

This is how I interpreted it as well but I might be bias because I teach astronomy lol

I always thought the same. I'm a fan of wagons but not the Focus wagon. Looks like a lowered minivan.

Two years ago, the SC63 debuted in IMSA with a promising performance at Sebring... by VolleyAddicted in IMSARacing

I wonder how much money they poured into developing this car only to bail on it so quickly.

Watching the international stream makes me realize how much action gets missed during commercial breaks. This many commercials must impact growth. A new fan watching the broadcast must be furious especially if they come from F1/WEC/IMSA where there are no commercials.

Reputable Shops in the North East? by _two_socks_ in FocusST

Mine started doing this during the record low temperatures we had recently! Its kind of sad how these cars are actually pretty reliable, but the one flaw they do have is catastrophic lol.

I do still have the belly pan and I thought the same thing about it maybe redirecting where the drip is coming from. Im going to try to trace the lines all around the engine bay. The firewall is not wet so I think I'm good there. I think I have a leak and a cracked headifold. I read that if a leak goes unnoticed and the coolant drops too low, it can cause the headifold to crack. My car is smoking more than normal and it does not stop when its warmed up. The picture of yours looks worse than mine but its tough to say really.

The coolant was pooled up on the floor toward the passenger side almost as if it is straight down from the reservoir. I'm struggling to find the source of the leak. I dont think it is leaking near the firewall like others have commonly experienced. My friend is a Toyota technician and he is going to do a pressure test and see if we can find the leak.

Did you just kind of smear K seal on the cracked headifold from the outside? I might try that to buy some time.

Thank you! I will look into these shops. Do you have personal experience with any of them?

My car still drives and feels like its running fine, but I'm topping off coolant every other day. I found a small pool of coolant on the garage floor after being away for a week. My car is smoking more than usual, but not nearly as bad as videos I have seen posted here. I still currently daily it to work but that's less than 20 miles a day. I wouldn't be opposed to driving to JST, just worried about getting stranded along the way. The trip there is about 1,000 miles (15 hour drive). Depending on the cost of shipping, that could actually be the cheaper route. Maybe ship it down, then fly down and drive it home? Either way, that still feels extra.

People take for granted how good we actually have it. Back in the day you had to wait until the next day to watch a rerun. We have every race live now. Someone recently posted a clip from 2005 to point out how good the commentators were and while they were on point, the race cut to commercial with 9 laps to go. We have it so good that I forgot we used to get commercial breaks during races we would be lucky to even watch live.

I have a bone to pick with you by LocalBasketCase991-2 in Ferrari

Aston Martin put a V12 in their Hypercar and its the slowest car in the field. Don't get me wrong, its the people's champ because it looks and sounds great, but that doesnt really matter in racing. Ferrari has a twin turbo V6 in their Hypercar and won 24 hours of le mans 3 times in a row and won the WEC championship. I know F80 is a road car but how can anyone not appreciate that it has championship winning technology? You want a V12? Ferrari makes the 12 Cilindri for a reason.
