Tomster. Have you beat. Ordered 7/2/19. Build week 9/20. Should have it by mid October =15 months. I believe there are roughly 600 Vins to be issued
Approximately 763 VINs left to issue. Assuming that 5000 are going to be issued.

I'm talking about who had the longest prison sentence at the flat rock penitentiary.

I'm also the reigning world champion for the longest time from unscheduled clean to delivered. I don't think anyone will beat my record on that one.

Unscheduled clean since august of last year.

I posted this elsewhere on the forum, but not getting any responses. I think the folks on this Thread are more in-tune with the CFTP Cars. Thanks in advance for your info.

Trying to determine some dimensions and ground clearances for a Carbon Fibre Track Package car. Asking for two reasons: The car is going to get transported from the dealer in CA to our home in Arizona when it finally clears it's hold at the rail yard...which was released yesterday.

The other reason is that the car will occasionally rest on a lift in my garage, and the rails for the lift have front wheel stops and side support gussets on the outside edges...which may impact the wheels and tires.

Would appreciate knowing:
What is the ground clearance of the front splitter for a CFTP car with OEM tires?

What is the ground clearance for the splitter wickers when attached to the sides of the front splitter?

What is the width of the splitter wickers from outside edge on the driver's side to the passenger side?

What is the distance from outside edge of the L/F tire to the outside edge of the L/F tire.

Again, I was referring to chief charlie's 44 day stint in the CA rail yard.

No, Valet mode has a speed limit, but no rpm limit. A person can still have a hell of a time in valet mode. IMHO, valet mode is useless.

Sorry about that Tom but I see yours is on the way Congrats.
As far as Valet mode you would think they would have enough sense to limit RPM as well or are we asking too much. I probably would never Valet it but it would be a nice feature to use in other circumstances.

I bet the tuners could do it.

I just wish there was a way to limit everything for when you drop it off to get work done. I've seen how people operate. The first thing that folks do when they start any of my cars is cold rev it. I quickly tell them to knock it off.

@Rolnlex15 - Arrived Rail

Your car has arrived at the end of the rail and is waiting to get unloaded and received by a trucking company for final delivery to your dealer.

Does anyone know if Penske shuts down next week as well?
I don't think so, they were still taking delivery of new cars on Friday.
Your car was delivered to Penske on 07/24/2020.
