The cars and coffee incidents are probably the reason for the helicopter parent traction control. That said, the most sketchy car I've ever driven with the nannies turned off was my 6th gen camaro.

I never saw him so I couldn't say but it looks to me like there was not enough rpm for the launch and it stalled.

I think if you put a pulley and tune on that cobra, it would be a good race with my pulley and tune 04 cl55amg.

What's my mod allowance before I race these full race prepped f bodies? Or do I have to stay completely stock because the blower whine makes f body pp feel smol?

Hellcat Durango is awesome, I heard dodge is going to start using a 3.0 v6 turbo engine instead of the hemi. P.s if that rc car was ls swapped, you'd be seeing tiny taillights.

mid that thing could keep the front tires down I would have been beaten badly. Ls swapped would have served me gapplebees. 😂

I don’t care about TT 6 bangers so I’ve likely bought my last dodge product. I don’t see anything in their future that even remotely interests me. Sadly it looks like we will all be driving mustangs if we want to buy a V8 in the future.

V8's are still sought after by the motor enthusiast's, it's the new generation who choose the cleaner/greener car to drive that could push the auto industry to no longer offer them. I drove by a dealership yesterday and seen a bunch of new V8 Chevy trucks just sitting on the lot. There's more and more fuel efficient/economical cars and trucks commuting on the roads these days but they just cannot do what some of the cars and trucks that have a real engine can do. I see lots of people blowing by me everyday when I'm out on the highways, even though I'm already doing 10-15mph over. I find it hilarious because the car you just passed could catch up to you quickly if I wanted it too.

im pretty sure my cars from here on out will be modified used cars. Very little of the new car lot appeals to me. The most appealing (im actually lusting over one) is the new Bronco. But the lack of towing capacity kills that for me. My lease on my Tacoma is up in March 2024. Heavily considering a cat eye silverado HD or a LS swapped square body suburban.

Yeah, that's glorious!

I would love one with a LSx 454 swap and manual trans. I mean, if I'm dreaming, it might as well be big!
