• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Which is a better choice, directional tires or symmetrical tires?

    2021 Spyder RTL. my last oil change at the dealer was $300 +-. I looked at the parts list used and was shocked what few parts were used. I decided put this 76 year old body on the floor and change my own oil, like I was still in my youth. CORRECTED: IT WAS POINTED OUT TO ME THAT THE OIL I...

    Tires.... discussing tread types & patterns.

    Even though cord separation, when moved to the other side of the vehicle, has been somewhat solved the belts, depending on the make of the tire, have a small tendency to become unbalanced. It's best to just move back and forth. not a problem on the spyder.
