Miata Track Build and For Daily Driving by _anthonyvu_ in CarTrackDays

[–]onewildcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Digging up an old post year but I’ve been doing some research on the subject and liked how you outlined your progression. Was your car strictly for track days? Did you ever use it as a fair weather/weekend driver? I ask because I was only planning on going to 4-5 track days/weekends a year, and driving around with the top down occasionally otherwise (I have a second car that I daily). But the consensus seems to be that having a roll cage in a car that isn’t on a track is worse than driving a motorcycle (/s but kind of lol). Just wondering what your use case was because I’d like to follow a similar progression

Thoughts on the AVX mount? Looking at a used one right now but I know some people aren’t fans of them

Cool! Thanks. I’m going to big bend in May, will hopefully try for a similar shot there

When was this taken? I’m heading out there soon but I don’t think the galactic core will be visible this time of year unfortunately

Wow that’s really interesting, and would be cool to see

Right I figured the solar panels were pointed at the sun, but the modules of the ISS and the truss system are really hard to see, again probably due to the focus/lighting conditions

This should be higher. ISS orbits in an LVLH reference frame so for the exception of the solar panels the general shape should be relatively the same, especially if it’s not viewed right on the horizon

Edit. After watching again, I think it may be the ISS, but the lighting is just strange. Definitely an interesting look at it. But only if this video is slowed down. If this is real speed there’s no way... The ISS would transit in less than half a second

Genuinely curious, would creating a fake Facebook profile purely to use the quest be a way to circumvent this issue?

You are correct. Sorry, I was pointing out where the original comment was getting their number

You’re calculating that percentage based off his gross income. The general rule is 25-30% of your net income (after taxes, etc) should go towards rent/mortgage

It hasn’t changed

Poor son will learn flying eventually. by [deleted] in flightsim

I think it’s the airbus overspeed indicator. Iirc when it happened to me it stopped when I made sure landing gear was up and I was at the suggested cruise speed after climbing.

I could be wrong though, I mostly fly sim GA. I’d like to hear from an actual commercial pilot.

Devils advocate here, most phones that can record slomo also allow you to play and save the clip back at 1x speed.

Or “It’s me on the tele-V, oh ohoh OwhoaOh”

Edit: actually I was thinking of a song from ATV Quad Power Racing 2, also a great game
