  1. "a bit of an aggressive overtake" in Vale's world means something he'd have done 10y ago....
  2. Jeepers. Those are good prices, man. A couple of those wood make a KILLER dining table / coffee table.
  3. Ducati wanted power and speed. AFAIK Dovi wanted something that cornered better, but Duc just carried on saying that he wasn't good enough to extract the best, the wind tunnel says our bike is perfect. Just ride it.
  4. Ja, the Merc is far ahead, but the midfield battle is excellent at the moment. I don't really pay attention to the Mercs, unless Bottas beats Hammy or if they don't finish.
  5. He wasn't exactly being conservative and patient on his ride though, was he? He had the pace, but was also extremely aggressive. Brad had a stonker of a race, though. As for Vale.... sjoe.
  6. That's like me continuing to say that the reason my lightie's bed frame drooped in one corner is because it was a "softer piece" of pine. when in fact I'd just put 2 coach screws in, not 4.
  7. Yeah, some meranti is really ***, I'll admit. But TBH Moridin, that puny plank would never have found its way onto a bench base..... particularly as the tabletop support....
  8. go on, you know you want to
  9. Looks like he remembered the meth, though...
  10. I love this guy's work
  11. I know what you mean I just scrolled all the way past it. Eina. Nee, dankie
  12. I must agree with Bos & Hairy, with that sort of terrain in mind. Maybe an aggressor 2.5 up front and a Rekon / Forekaster out back? Unless you're looking at proper casings in which case I'd go semi-slick like the Rock Razor / Slaughter etc. That's my main gripe with tyre manufacturers. If you're looking for proper strength and puncture protection, more than 75% of your tyre choices go out the window. An Ikon with DoubleDown? YES PLEASE.
  13. larger volume is always better for sand, so there's that. Plus they look better...
  14. Not yet, it wasn't here when I last bought tyres (got a DHR2 instead, don't like it at the back tho) but I wanna try it.
  15. .I just wish it came in a stronger casing, the Rekon. Agreed on wet weather dhf/dhr but personally I'd go for the assegai up front over those two, any day.
  16. Ja. And no. I prefer it to the dhr2, personally. Dhr2 is still the "DH" tyre. Aggressor seems to roll and brake better than the dhr2 imo, but the side knobs aren't as aggressive and the tread is closer together which means it shouldn't be as good in the wet and at clearing mud. Agg/Rekon would be grippy and fast. Obv slightly slower than agg/Ikon but imo the Rekon is a better rear tyre for all-round. Agg up front is lekka, from what I've read and heard.
  17. .great tyre, aggressor has slightly more aggressive tread but actually rolls really nicely. The 2.5 is a real 2.5, contrary to maxxis sizing standards. I think it would be a good combo.
  18. Definitely 2.5 agg up front vs Rekon, 2.5 front and back is good too but the Rekon 2.6 would be a better rear and not that much wider at all. If it fits. Cush is strange. Supports sidewalls and resuces squirm, but opens em up to cuts more as it's less compliant laterally. Allows you to run lower pressures and keep the performance the same (Lower overall air volume) but also allows you to get back home if you suffer a catastrophic failure. Helps keep the tyre seated, too.
  19. Best race I've seen in a long time. Binder, you're all you're jacked up to be. What a ride from Rossi, showing the young uns how it's done. Wtflip was Naka smoking?! Solid efforts!
  20. Those drivers are in full bumper car mode. That needs to be stopped pronto. However. It's an excellent format. Loved it. Just far too argey bargey punting going on
  21. No, it's not. They're allowed to run the brake ducts for the rest of the season. "Although the design process has been declared illegal, the stewards ruled that Racing Point are able to run the brake ducts for the rest of this season."
  22. Q3A in the UND Engineering & Physics lans, HLDM then CS in school
  23. No RGB, it's fake.,
  24. joh
