why do people paint the inside of the car a different colour? it alsways makes the car seem bodged to me. like when you see a respray with a black engine bay and 'oversprayed' door shuts. i mean its obvious its meant to be that colour but why

nice car though even if it has got a golf header tank

No, as any pro level drift car, inc that one, runs wider rear tyres than pretty much ANY of the cossies on this forum.

Bet that things got at least 255s on the back, chances are semi-slicks too, ive seen up to 275s used.

Reason they dont fill the arch is I expect they were bought before the kit, nowt to do with its use.

because more grip means more speed/power needed to lose the traction. more grip = faster drifting... well thats how i see it anyway, it makes sense in my little brain

NO in my head. so thats why i asked more grip better slip.

stav knows his onions.via drift cars so hopefully he will explain.how bigger tyres make the car drift better. i thought it would hinder the car via more grip..every days a school day.you live you learn

gay mirrors, gay rear lights, gay rear spoiler

and the wheels need to stick out a bit more (like the ones on your chaser mr stav)

also is a little high at the front. maybe its the gay spoiler pushing the back down

is it a stupid question to ask where the exhaust is?

p.s. i like everything else though even the colour is WELL cool

GM V8, none of this fancy crap.

rear lights are standard.

wing is as much function as form.

exhaust isnt there as, like most the car, it isnt complete, surely thats pretty obvious jus by looking in the enginebay, never mind the rest.

so you can go faster. if your drifting slower than others in a competition, youd lose, simple as, esp once in the final 16, which is basically a race.

Not keen on the colour scheme, wheels or spoiler.... but the engine, interior and car itself are top notch
