Why are Thorney so rubbish?

[AlexGTT]

Was an awesome resort, snowed a bit, but was also very sunny on 3 days so perfect, and come back with a bit of colour, felt sideways most of yesterday..

latest we started drinking was 3/4 ish apart from a day we ditched skiing and went on a 'all dayer' so most days were 10hrs + on it ... for 7 nights, I need a week to recover !! :hahaha:

Need to go somewhere next time with green runs, and spend some time in ski school, as just went straight up the mountain with the boys and literally shit myself, as I fell down the slopes !!

Welcome back mate. We missed you. Someone started a thread asking how to spend $$$ on CSL mods and Rob advised forget that! Spend it on booze, hookers and lap dances. Advised he consult our "life coach" but he was doing the very same on some ski slope somewhere. :whistle::smt055

I would suggest the OP was wrong in posting the inadequate opening message & the title. Clarity earlier would have been better.

John Thorney is being fair & open IMO.:smt023

...and as if by magic, my wheels turned up at TMS today and should be with me tomorrow. Many thanks to John for getting involved and using a wand.

Now then, I need to start a "Why are Camskill so rubbish?" for telling me tyres were in stock, I put through the order whilst on the phone checking this and then get an email a few mins later saying "out of stock". heh to be fair, one of those fluke chances where an order got in seconds before mine...apparently...maybe I'm just cursed.

So its no R888s on the new wheels, but hankook RS2 instead.

Hmmmmmm

be interested to hear your unbiased report on these:smokin:

[northernjim]

not as grippy as 888's but last for ages

my first 'track' tyre:gayfight:

[titan]

Without wanting to descend into a tyre debate, on my brothers R26.R we datalogged R888 vs Michelin PS2 at the 'ring. Same day/conditions etc etc yawn ;-)

basically - fook all in it in terms of vmax through corners etc. Where the R888 seemed to win was in the "inspiring confidence" stakes which allowed the driver to push on or turn in more positively. They also took the heat/abuse a bit better. PS2 is a pretty decent tyre though and its a 235 profile on the R26.R compared to 225 profile on the R888.

As always YMMV :-)

As for an unbiased report, bound to be wet at Oulton so doubt I'll come back with any meaningful outcome. Vbox is plumbed in now though

Lee - I would have gone for the Kumho V70a over the Hankook RS2's, I've run both and preferred the V70a's on the BMW. Maybe worth considering if not too late?
