I was so close to buying a manual M2 last year. I think they look great, contrary to most peoples opinion.
After 6 years with a 15gt and 3 with a 21 Mach 1 I wanted to explore something else .
Test drove 2 manuals , a new m2 and and used one.
very fast, sharp handling, refined interior.
Butā¦...
I run his Flex tune with 93 in the winter and yes I notice difference for sure. We have found from multiple logs that my car likes a little more fuel with 93 than normal AF of 14 at idle, mine is consistent at lower 13's AF.
I have carbon traps removed and high flow Steeda filters. I used to...
I chose DRP Motorsports this time around and couldnāt be happier. Ray provides a great Flex tune or 93 and he is super responsive, even takes a phone call.
Iāve had Ford Performance, Steeda, Livernois, and Wengerd tunes on my last 3 Mustangs. Even though I have a manual, itās still a very...
Those tuners are all drag racers and thatās mostly what they care about.
Tremec = Road course
10r80= floor it and go straight
I went to the track with my tuned 10r80 and it just wasnāt right.
It was ok but shifted early a lot on the straightās or hung in gears. Good tune for street.
You need...
So I dove on the interstate today and tried to set cruise control, set it to speed and it went green , would not engage pedal.
Tried adaptive cruise and that said it wasnāt available.
So either it the bigger diameter tires or my cpu is messed up:
Luckily I never use cruise control! lol
I did 285/35 x 315/35 on my new 20's with Conti DWS Sports
No Rubbing , speedo off 3mph but who cares
I think my cruise control may not work anymore come to think of it, didn't realize it was the tires.
I'll have my stock summers back on in a couple months so I will need to test
Rally is cool, so is Superbike and Dirt biking.
I'm really into F1 last few years but the issue is it's so damn boring most of the race. You have to record and watch with fast-forward. Hopefully new rules this year with DRS will change this
A good part of the fun of Nascar is the tailgating before the race.
I went to many races 15 years ago and many were very boring to watch. I do think Nascar has done a lot with the next gen car and tracks to make the sport better because just like me they were losing fans.
I hope you all notice, he's driving a manual! Just Like Nascar uses in their cars.
American Racing is still using manual gearboxes not because it's faster but because it's American baby!
Sorry, just thought I'd ruffle some feathers ... lol
Agreed, you paid way too much for a GT. I paid $63k for my new 24 DH Premium 1 year ago.
You can't buy these cars for sticker, especially after they kept bumping the prices up.
You also can't include tax/title , destination fees as they are a loss.
Is that because of weight or diameter.
Seems like the weight of my new wheels are lighter than stock wheels but tires are heavier.
May be close to same weight as stock 19 setup
Curious how it makes it slower?
Lets say the diameter is 1" larger. Aren't you going faster .
At 80mph on my dash my radar detector show I'm going like 84mph
