Nope, Bone-Stock as required by SCCA rules in the day. Mine was extremely early US-spec (mfg Feb 2001), so maybe something they slipped in later so they could continue to cheap-out on OEM tires...

You can get a lot of places with good tires, decent ground clearance, and careful driving (and spotting). Not that you should.
I’ve always used flashers any time I was forced to travel dramatically below the speed limit on the highway (mechanical issue, running out of gas, thick fog, heavy rain) and it seemed that other cars were still moving at higher speeds. That seemed like a good way to indicate slow-moving travel to other cars that…
How exactly is that cruiser justified in ramming an already-disabled vehicle? How’s that not using an automobile as a deadly weapon?
I hate the wheels and the fitment of said wheels, but otherwise it’s pretty cool.
My impression is that this looks cool as a purely theoretical construct. In reality, it’s probably going to look like shit because the entire length of your dashboard is now going to be constantly dusty and smudged with fingerprints, creating too much ambient interior light for nighttime driving, and probably…
Kinda true. When I drive box trucks for my company, cars do all kinds of dumb stuff around me. I mean, I don’t blame you for not wanting to be stuck behind a giant wall that is scrupulously obeying the speed limit (and also telling you that “The price of solar has dropped 74% in the last 10 years!”) but it’s not worth…
Hard disagree. That 6 series still looks ugly.
That’s like calling the paparazzi and letting them know where you plan on having dinner. It’s lame.
What generation SHO did you have? I had a Gen1 and a Gen2, and although the ABS pulsed slower than some systems, I never had it actually ‘turn off’.
Knowing some top name professional drivers, this is 100% correct. They are absolutely told they can not do or to stay away from certain riskier activities. However, this particular incident I imagine falls in some sort of weird grey zone, either way they wont be happy
Track would not be nearly as beneficial as road. Improperly trained track cycling is also way more dangerous than road.
A bit of a pet peeve, but the road didn’t crash the car, the driver did.
Well, one of them is anyway.
I think it’s a valid critique in that the world is made a servant to the game rather than the game a servant to the world. It all depends on what you want, but for somebody desiring an immersive world it absolutely comes up short.
.... except it absolutely can. Pushing the engines further forward has a tendency to bring the nose up. You know how you correct that? By adjusting the trim down, or ya know, putting gentle appropriate pressure forward on the yoke.
Changing the flight characteristics of an aircraft /= aerodynamically unstable. Wanna…
They barely got the game out the door and had to crunch to do it, but you don’t like that they didn’t include a vagina slider? Insanity or just a lack of self awareness?
I think this very much depends on the individual mobility challenges. When we finally convinced my grandmother to stop driving in her 80's, she sometimes had to rely on taxis to get to the doctor. She had a much harder time getting in and out of the minivans, than the Crown Vics (this was early-mid 00's). It was…
yeah. There is an open wound on the front of that car.
