• 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.

    Any pics/advice on Loading an F3 onto a trailer?

    Does anyone have any photos etc. of loading an F3 onto a trailer. How big does the trailer need to be and how do you tie it down after it's loaded? I know that an Aluma 6310 works just right. But I can't find a place that will rent one. What's U-Hauls options? Thanks a bunch, JimSTer

    Whats this?

    I bought a used 2015 F3 S. The previous owner lost a bunch of stuff, including the second key. However looking inside the frunk I see a couple of coin sized velcro patches glued to the back wall. Can anyone tell me what these are for? I'm sure it's not a big deal. Just curious

    Belt Tensioner

    Hello canamjhb: Thanks so much for your input. You've solidified my thoughts that I need to loosen the belt tension some. However my tool measures in pounds. So can you translate 300N +/-100 for me? I saw 160-180 pounds somewhere on here. Thanks again, JimSTer
