Appears to have fallen apart before it got started. https://www.roadracingworld.com/news/big-money-world-moto-clash-race-50-50-ceo-says/?feed_id=3619&_unique_id=6a7ce44827012

Tesla cars aren't particularly out of whack relative to the weight of modern CUVs and SUVs. My driveway has 4 sunken spots where the tires of my van have to be in order for me to sneak bikes in and out of the garage. Because it is always in the same spot (and because the driveway was put in by...

Alexandre Michel has been posting on social media. He has a broken collarbone. He also posted video of the crash. I saw this in the paddock but didn't have the ability to slow it down or do any stop-motion analysis at the time. Do not click this link unless you want to see it ... Video Zoltan...

Iirc that was at Shannonville. Personally I don't push my limits at Mosport. I leave something on the table and just enjoy the ride.

We think the tangle happened because Michel started turning in but Frast was at least partially in his draft and couldn't scrub off enough speed to avoid collision. Draft is very significant at those speeds. On bikes with downforce aero (all modern superbikes) that's less effective when in...

Example - a year ago, there was only one fast-charger in Grand Bend. Now there's 3. There's still the thing about needing multiple phone apps for charging networks, but now, a lot of them talk to each other. Getting a charge going generally means pulling up, opening the app for a compatible...

Like I've said many times, don't confuse Tesla problems with EV problems. Don't confuse "any modern car" problems with EV problems, either.

My Bolt crossed 100 000 km a week or two ago. Original tyres, though on the one hand some of that 100k has been done on snows and on the other hand, there's still wiggle room before wear bars. I'm still declaring them done after this season. Original brakes, too. Needs sway bar end links...

Friend's race bike broke on Saturday, so he test-rode an Aprilia RS660 on Sunday instead.

For those wondering about the outcome of the gnarly crash in Pro Superbike race 1 at the end of the main straight (fastest possible place to crash on the fastest possible bikes to crash on), one of the Flyin' Banana's team members posted a photo of him giving us the finger from the hospital, and...

In upper paddock, furthest end from the ramp between paddocks. Not riding ... doing pit-crew stuff.

There is no dedicated seating and it's mostly grass hillsides, and you can go wherever you want (except pit-lane restricted areas). YES bring your own camping chair. YES to tailgating. YES to sun protection. AFAIK demo ride sign-up is done the day-of, but get that figured out as soon as...

Block heater circuits would have to be 120V 15A (or 20A) dedicated circuits with GFCI. Sure, block heaters can duty-cycle or thermostat-cycle, but if you even had two big ones on the same circuit and they thermostat-cycled together, pop goes the circuit breaker! That's good enough for a Level 1...

I'm in!

It is still possible for a large vehicle to turn left at Bush St in Belfountain after that sign, though that's legally problematic because of this...

Shannonville normally has 24 hour security at the gate. I would urge getting a really good night's sleep and a decent breakfast before the track day. Belleville and Napanee are both a 20 minute drive away.

I'm the other way around 🤣

I'm not a fan of them, either, but at the same time, I understand why things are going that way. Frees up real estate in the console for storage cubbies and the like, eliminates having to route mechanical cables from there to the rear suspension (no central tunnel in the floorpan in my Bolt! the...

Anyone in? I have race weekend prep to do, but at this point it looks like it will get done in time ...

Knocking. Common issue. The internet forums have found some aftermarket ones that are supposedly better made, so that's what I bought. A lot of Cruze/Sonic/Trax/Spark parts are close enough to be made to work.
