On the first gen it calculates based on engine revolutions per mile. There is a table in Romraider where you can adjust it.

Which means it would need to use the ABS sensors, right? Otherwise how is it calculating revolutions per mile?

Wheel speed sensor, ABS sensor, it's the same thing.

It's more about how many highway miles I plan on driving. I'm used to getting 30+mpg @ 80mph highway in my old mini. It's a mild annoyance but getting 30+ with the current final drive has me capped at 75mph.
EDIT: this car doubles as my daily (though I don't drive daily) so it does go on road trips. |

What’s your threshold a 1.875mpg loss? lol you get what I’m saying The stock gearing to me is perfect for city and hwy balance. 4.3 would be fun for tight curvy roads and annoying on the highway especially with an exhaust.

Going through the traps in 5th was slower than going through the traps in 4th.

To keep ourselves in check on the street, we took the motto that if you had to use the brakes you were riding too fast. IE, banging gears when it's straight to nail the brakes and downshift for the corners. Just keep it nice and smooth. But I haven't ridden in years since I wrecked at the track and ended up with post-concussion syndrome. It's terrible.

You learn to love something like riding so much sometimes you need to learn to let it go. Between skill, confidence and some probable luck eventually the best of riders will be dealt a hand they have to fold. Hopefully they come out unscathed and not permanently injured or dead. I miss it glad you are ok.

But yes, I do want the lightest 17x7.5 43mm wheels, though might settle for the GR accesory wheels, and when the stock tires wear out I'm going to consider rolling resistance ratings (and weight) on replacements. I suspect low rr tires would be quieter as well. |
