If slick tyres are used in F1, they’re good enough for me.

[–] IWantToFuckSpez@kbin.social 24 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Make sure you use your tire warmers every morning.

[–] spudwart@spudwart.com 27 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Come on now, this meme has been getting reposted so much its starting to degrade.

[–] qisope@lemmy.world 36 points 11 months ago (1 children)

hmmm, maybe someone has been sanding it down so it reposts smoother on the Internet

So, do you want a new set of mediums or prefer a new set of hards? Question.

[–] kryostar@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

Each time this meme get reposted his tyre gets sanded down just a bit more.

Also less microplastics by abrasion on the road.

[–] ramenshaman@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago

OP already did all the abrasion in advance!

Grip>displacement

As with speed, as with smooth driving: start with the suspension.

[–] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 23 points 11 months ago (1 children)

brb sanding down my suspension

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Why stop there? If sanding things down makes performance more optimal, I'mma sand down every component in my vehicle.

[–] atocci@kbin.social 10 points 11 months ago (2 children)

No no you're missing the point. Sand the road flat.

[–] Globulart@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

You're not thinking this all the way through, why sand flat when you can sand downhill?

[–] KSPAtlas@sopuli.xyz 8 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Sanding down the pistons rn

[–] TimeSquirrel@kbin.social 7 points 11 months ago

Those transmission gears would probably work way better without those teeth on 'em.

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Don't forget your camshafts.

F1 is everything but smooth

[–] EatYouWell@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

It also plays a big role in towing capacity.

[–] Egerbur@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago
