What did you do to your kart today?

I use P-80 as well. It’s awesome.

First I let the tires sit in the sun for about 20 minutes and then spread some P-80 on the bead before attempting to seat. I rarely have to go past 35-40 PSI to get a tire to bead. I do not dilute it however and just use very little in a small squeeze bottle I have.

They offer both. The Rapdio is Birel Based, the Supersonic is IPK Based (It’s basically a Praga Fighter). They use both at various events.

I like IPK products. I am not racing wheel to wheel (I’m doing SCCA SOLO, along with practice days). I also like dealing with Italian motors so this was killed 2 birds with one stone. =)

Wheels look good! On the yota.

I really like those cars, if I was a younger man there might just be one in my garage.

Sort of a Toyota :wink: I have the Subaru version. Same thing, different badge.

And I’m trying to stay young at heart. I’m lucky enough to have the ability to have a fun car and a practical car. There’s no way I’d be able to just have the BRZ as an only car like I did in the past.

Had a blue new one drive by me today… aggressive looking as heck. Totally a sub 40 yr old guy car tho. I couldn’t pull it off. Dentist 911 is age appropriate.

Some people have dubbed them a “Poorsche” because the people buying them can’t afford a real sports car


Trying to streamline and organize my trailer and tools for this season. Just picked up a 3 piece 90 tooth ratchet set, and a 9 piece extension set, both sets in fitted foam trays, and both sets for $100 total.

They’re all for customers, thankfully. Once I get them setup and dyno tuned, off they go!

Zing! Guilty as charged. Although they have gotten stupid expensive as have pretty much all cars.

This is most excellent. I had a BRZ for a while and loved it, except for the FA20. The new car fixes that and I absolutely love the few I have had a chance to autocross. NT03+M’s are also a favorite wheel of mine. My garage currently consists of my Minivan (Daily+Kart Transport), the shifter Kart and finally, a 981 Cayman S (Dream car, had to get one before they got dumb expensive).

I need to buy a set of wrenches for the sim rig.

What I need is smaller sized stuff appropriate for the smallish stuff we deal with on alu rigs. The screw part is always a hex which I have a nice set for.

One of the issues I run into is accesssing both sides of the screw/bolt.

If the bolt is below mounted in the bottom of the rig I’d like to be able to come at it vertically (from below) as opposed to horizontal (like a wrench would).

So, in addition to a set of small wrenches, what do I need to tighten bolts vertically?
