Thank you for the mention, have you seen my dual oil cooler kit I just released last week?

Rexpelagi replied to the thread "Official" Lap Times Thread.Nice Lap! Just FYI - you probably already know from the One Lap experience but the oil temp gauge is just a calc, not a sensor. Given...

Rexpelagi replied to the thread *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*.I really liked the CR-S version 2 on my RC-F, but it's also a little weak in the cold/wet, so that brought me towards the 71RS for this...

They also didn't work in the dry + warm for me either :p. It was honestly so bad that I was convinced something was wrong with the car...

They definitely do not work in the wet or damp and cold. I found that out the fun way at the Cam Challenge in St. Louis this year. I'm...

Rexpelagi replied to the thread *The FL5 Track Junkie Thread*.Thanks! Ya, this track was a blast last year, and my times in practice seemed encouraging, so we'll see!

Yea he was moving. It's good inspiration 😅

He's fast for sure. We call him ' smooth operator ' There was a stock auto EN that did a 2:10.1 on v730s, so they are definitely close
