sheet/bead update

I love that video, hmm seems like Putey is acting up again.:scared
 
oh no way only 20 seconds of the video showed up



I did more than that, i'll fix it when I get home



as for sheet beading, I call it that for a reason. on a moving car the beads of water obviously move and it beads away



on a still car (like in the rain) the water beads up and then rolls right off. I fell that with Klasse their is less cling between the beads and the pain than with carnabua, where the beads would sit rather than roll. So I guess I can call it roll/beading versus cling/beading to be precise.
 
Well it looks like mostly beading to me. The beads did collect a little more than they would with an oily wax or Zaino but it's still beading.



I was expecting some crazy 90 mph pull the e-brake turn man "and THAT is how you get the water out of the cracks! woo hoo", you let me down Steve.... :down
 
ROFLMAO!

Thanks for showing us the movie Steve! At least the yellow lines on the left are going straight... must be that German directional stability!

:D
 
You want American balance stability? I got 3600 pounds in my car, I would guess 3595 of those pounds are in the front and the skinny 285's in the rear don't do anything for me. But then again I don't even have a full frame in the rear of my car.



Let's just say I won't be auto-x'ing anytime soon. Just point the rocket and launch.
 
SKINNY?! :eek:

A not-so-bright friend of mine recently was driving rather briskly in his '00 Camaro SS and decided to attempt to take a right turn at whatever speed. Well, short version is the car fishtailed and he somehow managed to hit both front wheels on one curb and smack both side ones on the opposite curb, knocking over a stop sign.



I tried to tell him why I can do it in my car but he can't do it in his but he just didn't listen...
 
275's are stock, I wanted at least 285's so I got em and they were a waste of money. When I smoke these up I am getting 315's..... shouldn't be for a while, unless I find a good deal on the 17x11 rims sooner than I expect to buy.



Puterbum - my buddy has a 1988 Audi Quattro that I know would probaly take me in turns... it's sad, very sad. I need to get shocks, springs, sub frame connectors, sway bars and a panhard rod. THEN I'll make a turn here and there.
