Bad excuse. Surely with a $80k suspension setup his car is more undriveable than the cheap suspension let's say your car / any other ones have. Give up.
You sound like the sort of person who knows they have ruined their car and running a better setup (airbags) would be so much nicer, but can't admit it and/or can't afford it. Handling is a BS excuse because we all know a car that low doesn't handle anyway.
What's sad is the average peeps who do slam their car to such a level, actually think they've increased handling. Put them in any type of competition and they'd see otherwise. (not to mention the typically worsened handling in adverse weather conditions I mentioned eons ago) Now, that doesn't necessarily refer to lil ginho here, as he's already stated he could care less about handling, but it usually seems to be the case. So sad!
finally got my car back running in the past few days, just need some sump bolts and a u-bolt for the exhaust along with a new tyre as i have a huge gouge in the sidewall
i actually never thought about the winter when i saw those low cars...
i already know theyre kind of useless as a daily driver, but now that u mention it...rofl
i hope his lip is well secured, plowing all that snow
//edit: what car is that Derv?
kinda looks like a lupo/arosa on the back, but not in the front.
how comes that a lot of ppl move out to the states?
onto the car...the cab color (it is in germany basic color for cabs) aint quite my stuff, but beside its alright.
even tho i would change the surrounding of the headlights to chrome.
would look much better.
Hmm dunno. Moved here when I was 7.
Black trim used to be chrome, debating on keeping them black or peeling back to chrome. Decisions decisions. But awh man, didn't know it was a cab color in Germany
You're right, airbags can be a viable option, but we're in a racing game forum discussing small cars, not SUV's/vehicles trying to retain offroad abilities.
Me either, till he brought up winter tires.
Yeah, but low still doesn't necessarily mean fast, (especially on a mostly stock car), same as having too low profile a tire can negatively affect performance. As you said, race cars live on race tracks, but they've also had A LOT of tuning time put into them to make that low stance & treads work together. (on a track)
On a different note, nice Mini Btoryo. Personally, I like the black.
so obviously the engineers who design and refine the suspension know what they are doing, and have most likely made a great design for the intended purpose; how can you improve the handling ability of a car?
i know a drop will lower the COG, but wont they upset the geometry of the suspension? where is the point where it all turns into backwards progress?
in other words, enough bickering about how sl@mm3d cars are slow, and realize that he isnt looking for a fast car (i hope)
I hope somebody:bananadea'd that Celica down before the show was over and/or before it causes an accident & I'm not even gonna press you further ginho, lol.
(in the back of my mind.. look away from the train wreck, look away from the train wreck, look away from the train wreck!)
