It's a freakin' race car!!!!

I had The Gentleman's Cruiser out today after making a few adjustments on the coilovers. I found a few nice cloverleafs and threw the car into them hard. Proper apex's and powering out at totally unreasonable speeds. The car just sat flat as a pancake right up to the limits of the PS2's. Powering all the way through long sweepers was insane. It was nice to finally have some roads up to temp.

I love the Man Sled!!!

That's what Mrs. WKMCD calls it.....Boys and their toys - as she also says.

Someone suggested I change it to The Gentleman's Bruiser.

Now that's a good idea

Fitting name for the car... or you could just call it Asshole, but there's somone else on this forum that allready has that name

His name starts w/ a G and ends with an ary.

My name does not start with a G, and there's no ary in there anywhere.

When you upgrading the tires to a stickier compound Kevin? I know you could use it.
