• 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.

Lug nut torq..

Just Torq my front lugs on my f3 to 77lbs but it just seems like they are not very tight. Is 77lbs right?
 
I would ride the Spyder for about 100 miles, then torque the lug nuts to 80 lb/ft. I do this when I put snow tires on our cars in the winter (they are mounted on rims). I torque them to the lower number in the range, then after 100 miles I re-torque them to the higher number. A couple of different tire shops recommended doing this. Evidently, lug nuts can loosen when first put on - say after getting new tires - hence the re-torquing. I check the torque on my front wheels once a month, but that's just me being anal. (I check the cars, too).
