Yup, looks so much cleaner. I have my windshield coated but the way I see it is with the tires I run I can't get going fast enough to use the wipers so.....bye bye wipers

You like Lucas better?

the rain x works good if it’s fresh. Doesn’t seem to last long though. But I haven’t been driving car much on street lately

the motor and wipers etc was probably 5 lbs. a full reservoir is a gallon so like 7 lbs. roughly ten lb weight reduction mod. And better aero. Can’t underestimate aero
hio

btw I’m no tuner but I was looking at my last logs with my rotofab vs my custom otr. I picked up 370 maf hz. And the air was similar. That’s good right ?

rotofab peak was 8948 otr was 9324

I like the lucas better than most stuff right now. It's certainly the best quick detailer i have used but with consistent use it seems to better than any wax i have used. It's easy to use too and inexpensive.

Aero mods brings hurt.....massive hurt for some reason.

Oh i won't be running. I could run the mustang but I'm not really bothered about running it again w/o a few changes. Still waiting on the motor for the camaro but he has started on it.

I will try to make it out there to watch tho.

Im from OKC, so my opinion on what a street car consists of it automatically null and void. Since they run pro mods on the street there.

Ceramic windshield coating FTW. Last longer than any other wax.

I wonder if he mixed up Skreet with street?

True story.

At this point in time waxes and synthetic automotive sealants should be just as obsolete as a tape player.

True but it all boils down to people want it fast and easy and ceramic coating all be it better in every single way takes allot of effort and time to do.

Also very true, my comment was a bit overkill lol. There are definitely plenty of people out there that just enjoy putting a fresh coat of wax on there own car every nice Saturday morning.
