Had a nice big slice of humble pie yesterday

wheel bearing. got an oem replacement on the way from LMR and the wheel fix is only 125 so all in all like 375 for the whole oopsie. wheel is at the fixer now and the bearing should be here tomorrow. i'm gonna get fresh tires while im at it.

so after thinking about it i know what i did wrong. I made the mistake of full send and doing the 1-2 shift during a slight curve on nearly dead pzero tires and from the looks of it the alignment has been off from the factory cause one is a lot more dead than the other.

so, i'm gonna have an alignment done with some steeda rear camber bolts to hopefully get it all dialed in easily.

Do you have a dashcam? Using another thread is an example, you may want to go on the test drive when the alignment is done.

There‘s those that have, & those that are going to.
Thankfully no one hurt.

Wow, that could have gone much worse! Lesson learned... it's funny when you get so accustomed to having all that power under your right foot but you forget it can bite you back really quickly.

I got used to the hot summers, it was chilly, i didn't let these shitty Pzeros heat up enough before giving it full send in track mode... and a curb decided to object.

behold... my shame:

I'm just glad you are okay, brother. You can fix the wheels. We're getting colder here in England, today was the first day I really had to back off the throttle, getting into my cooler weather driving style. Stay safe.

welp the wheel was fixed but the first attempt to match the paint was a failure. looked nice, just too dark. I dropped off the other back wheel so they could make sure it matches before they call again.

hopefully this doesn't turn into a debacle. i decided to throw in the steeda camber adjustment kit since it probably needs an alignment after all this.

Probably was a crowd of people sitting right on top of that curb.

The car rear camber can be adjusted without throwing parts at it. Just FYI.

Sometimes OCD gets folks in more trouble than just leaving stuff alone.

I know. these just make it easier to dial it in.

behold... my shame:

Not gonna pretend I haven’t been in that same position. Was just lucky there wasn't a curb close by.

 

[Oakley]

welp, looks like they got it pretty close based on these photos. maybe someday i have em all colorchanged to gunmetal or something.

 

[Biggus Dickus]

dam shame but, I would guess you won't do it again

That is probably repairable - good thing those are forged rims.

Yea you pick your battles...

which you should've done instead of posting some passive aggressive mother in law level bullshit in my thread unnecessarily.

Aggressive mother in law bs?? I posted this in the wrong thread that post was meant for the 7G forum. However, you really need to chill out...no one means to demean you. BTW, deleted the post.
