Just can't get enuff!
I think that's one of the worst car related videos I've ever seen. The guy couldn't even put his mind around the advantages of CF wheels. You gon' drift better, braaah!! :headbonk:
What a nitwit reporter. An insult to the 'nerd' word... more like Liquid Brain. :D

Yes...part of the conditional clause to let him near the car. (FORD) you can interview but not drive the car........... I wonder if the nose ring had anything to do with it? :shrug: "Gosh Juan, know one takes me serious with this nose ring on my face, maybe i should remove it.....:thumbsup:

If I ever get to that level, I'm sure I'll receive heavy flak. I've seen many independants secure media spots with Ford... I think it's time for me to get some camera time ;)


If and when, our reviews will be done at Pittsburgh International (Beaver Run). I'm hoping someone will help me get those strings pulled...

-So what do carbon fiber wheels do?

--They lower the moment of inertia.

-Ah, I see! So, they add more horsepowers?

--See, really what they do is they help the car respond better to transitions.

-Oooooh! So, they give it more aerodynamicness?

--Well, more like they help improve steering response, as well as aid in constant acceleration and deceleration.

-Got it! So, in other words, you guys will really be good at ice racing nimble-ocity.

--Sure.

So what does the wing on the R do?

Its for more downforce and helps keep the rear end planted.

Cool. So its good for what? 200 foot pounds of downforce?

No thats a figure used to describe torque.

Like torque ratios? (Liberty Mutual Reference)

No. Any more questions?

Yeah, you take it off any sweet jumps?
