Probably to make the car look less new as it ages on purpose.

Quit & deleted the Solterra forum member journal. I guess, posting any “sponsor” outside of official forum vendors is against the rule. Don’t remember post ANY outside link or link to sponsor’s site. NP, no hard feeling. Rules are rules.
But my sponsor wasn’t happy… I had to feed nice jerky to calm her down. …or she didn’t like Panda costume lmfao Either way, gonna go back t be a lurker on that site. Last edited by ichitaka05; 11-19-2023 at 07:14 PM. |

And question, what steps does one need to take in order to get into tracking. Im looking at Lime Rock and they have a Drivers Club, HPDE event where you sit down with an instructor all day and learn about the track and your car.
Is this how things work normally? |

I admit, I've never had that affliction. I'm sure they are fantastic to drive, but they just don't do anything for me.

Random Thoughts - Part III The Search for Spark (No Politics)

It sounds extremely silly. But I’ve been driving so many Porsches on GT7, ACC, AC, and it is an incredible vehicle, except for the classic ones where the car feels like it wants to kill you. Plus the POVs on Youtube for Porche Cup. Add the documentary from Michael Fassbender. If anything, it has determined me to stop doing simulators and just take the step on my car. Im looking into the Lime Rock Track Tapas and see how it goes. |

Take a proper helmet if you have one. Buy track insurance.
