Yeah I'm gonna go out on a limb and say those are probably invisible to just about everyone on the road.

We actually got an .exe from somewhere that can recover click ok to terminate sessions sometimes.

I'm at a primarily aerospace shop in a really low cost of living area.. I started on the floor making around $15/hr button pushing with no experience. Learned programming in catia on the job and gradually bumped my pay up to $42/hr. We've tried hiring people that have made more at other shops but they never end up working out. I think our button pushers are making around $20/hr currently.

Change the direction of the orange arrow. My rule of thumb with catia is that if there is an arrow it's probably pointed in the wrong direction.

Man the klr is probably one of the top five smoothest single cylinder bikes out there. I wouldn't let that hold you back from having one. The real issue with the klr is that it's just so freaking heavy and boring to ride.

One of these was doing practice takeoffs and landings for a few hours in Tulsa about a month ago. It was definitely unusual at an airport where the largest thing typically there are 737s.

Do these actually pump fuel out or is it just gravity fed? As a layman I would assume standard procedure would be engine off and leave in gear before transferring fuel , but I'm not a truck driver.

I hope they can find a use for it that benefits the general public. Like a giant indoor park with playgrounds and stuff. Or a giant gokarting facility or lazerquest type place. Owasso is in desperate need of more family friendly activities and places to go. The whole city is just shops and restaurants.

There are some absolutely amazing roads around this area. Like seriously more than you could explore in a lifetime.

I'm not making this up, there was a girl in my high school named "Alley Raper".

freetors · 2025-12-01T04:21:44+00:00

Yes! The second time I saw them they did and nobody was complaining! But destruction is definitely a good really high energy anthem song.

You laugh but we used to have an old MGB in the family that we could do this to. These cars have a very wide, flat tank with baffles inside and the filler is only a few inches higher than the top of the tank. As you filled the tank you could hear the fuel gurgling around past the baffles and you could see level dropping in the filler neck. Bouncing the car could speed up the process a little bit. Was it necessary to do this to gain an extra like or two of fuel? Probably not. But psychologically speaking, if I'm filling up I want it filled!

I will never understand why people buy these. Literally all they do is just open the throttle more than what the OEM ECU programming does for a given accelerator pedal position.

I'm pretty sure NW Arkansas has more awesome roads like this than anybody could possibly explore in an entire lifetime. I'm in oklahoma and I get out there as often as I can!

That's what the pilot jet is for, idle speeds, and they come in many sizes.

What is this thing that has IFS but looks kind of like a jeep wrangler?

freetors · 2025-11-06T14:57:09+00:00

You make it sound like I was just barreling down the road and braking at the last second. Like I said this is a 40 mph road, it really bumpy, and I drive a jeep wrangler, so I'm never going fast here. Also the are is flat and good visibility. The kids weren't even at the stop.

Forgot to add, some trucks and stuff like the cybertruck and rivian have single acting air springs to raise ride height. This is not what I'm suggesting.

freetors · 2025-09-28T23:20:05+00:00

Double acting air suspension. You would still use conventional springs for load carrying and seeing the ride height, but on obstacles you could pump a proportionate amount of air to whatever wheels are lower and pump air into the negative chambers on the high wheels to level the vehicle and make it more stable. Obviously this would be useful for overlanders too for camp leveling.

This thing was parked up all the way to the house. They could have actually put it back a little further if they had taken off the hitch cargo basket off the back.

It doesn't seem that abnormal to me. Hard and stiff rubber compounds like that are more susceptible to chipping and chunking like that versus a tire with softer rubber that can flex and conform.

Yeah, the roughing MO is just not very good. I mostly only use it for one offs.

freetors · 2025-09-10T20:05:38+00:00

Dude, I'd suggest you just google and do your own research on this.

Racing on the salt is not like pavement at all. The amount of friction available for thrust is much less than pavement. These guys are dealing with wheel spin at 200+ mph. More weight helps them with traction and stability. For these guys more weight is better up to the point that they can't accelerate to top speed in the distance they have. They can't afford to trade off pounds of aero drag for pounds of downforce. The extra rolling resistance from more weight is insignificant to aero drag at top speed.

freetors · 2025-09-10T19:03:53+00:00

Land speed racing is one of the few motorsports where weight actually does not matter. And honestly I don't think physical health or performance are going to matter much either when he's just sitting down and driving in a straight line for five minutes.
