I guess thats the difference between a car that had been in production for over a year vs one that only started production in May. People expecting anything within two months of the production start are really only setting themselves up for disappointment
I've always operated under the assumption that late August would be when I saw my car at the earliest. My dealer straight up said "expect 18 weeks minimum before the car gets shipped, then expect another 10 days for us to get it and prep it for you" when I ordered back in March. Which had my...
I can see all the anime dash clusters now...
Fr though I would love to see custom dash clusters, add just that little bit more of personalization to the car.
The steering isnt the issue, everyone says the car steers better than the 550, the issue is the road feel isn't meeting their expectations they aren't getting the feedback they want from the system.
Obviously take every review with a grain of salt, what they feel might not reflect what you feel. Me personally I'm coming from a live axle 4.6l from 2010, so it's pretty much a completely different world for me lol.
its interesting to see Vaughn talk about the steering being improved. the Throttle House guys said almost the opposite. im wondering if its a difference between base and premium or if its just driver feel considering how many supercars and luxury SUVs they drive.
regarding the RTR parts: do...
i wouldnt hold my breath for a DH video this week, everything we've seen from LA so far has been Ecoboost and GTs only. DHs media drive was a while ago.
yeah, i was referring to shape wise.
pretty much nothing is actually shared between race cars and road cars. at most itll be things like engine blocks (C8 GT3.R has the engine from the Z06, Mustang GT3 and Gen3 Supercar have a coyote block). but actual panels and a lot of actual parts are all...
the mustang in my pfp has NH oil undercoating, i got it about 4-ish years ago, unfortunately my mufflers didnt get the coating treatment. 4 years on and the underside is just as black as when the spray got put on...my mufflers have a rust hole due to road salt from New England winter driving. i...
yes and no
generally the answer will be yes, higher performance suspension compromises comfort alot as their primary job shifts from softening bumps to keeping the tires on the road. there are some ways to get a decent balance of the two(magneride/Air ride) but they come at a premium vs other...
thats changed majorly for the Gen 3 car theyre running now, they are still heavily modified and arent 1:1 but Ford and Chevy did push to make the cars look closer to real life compared to the last gen cars. but the same can be said for any series, no major racing series' cars are 1:1 with its...
the simple reason is probably that regulations wont let them, V8 Supercars dont have to meet street spec so they can run the longer wheelbase/shorter front
obviously im getting the day 1 stuff: tint, PPF, dashcam.
after that will be the RTR body kit (not the spec 2 just the exterior stuff)
after that no major plans for the foreseeable future, at least a year of ownership before i decide on FI or other performance parts
pretty sure
1: the specs dont match, the OW on the trailer isnt NP, the one at LA is, similarly the red one on the trailer isnt np, the one in LA is.
2: the truck was spotted in Michigan, the event is in LA, they wouldnt take that kind of trailer for this type of event
3: the video of the cars...
