They do go well.Originally Posted by Sonic Mountain
I’ve often thought of putting some work into it, but then every time it rains I have to tip toe in it as it is. Not sure I need a 500 rwkw nightmare. Certainly don’t need the insurance premium that would go with it.

Awesome choice of car, Franken!
This is my daily, XR6T...

Nice Swanny, those XR6T’s go like cut cats. They pull harder and faster off the line than the eights.
I had a BF XR6T for work, and that was effectively a Missile with wheels on.

I’m a Graphic Designer by trade. I design lots of things. Worked on Alien: Covenant last year in the art department. That was pretty cool. I’m a Ford man too. Have an XR6 2012 model. Goes pretty good.

Nice illustration work Darryl. One of my favourite franchises..even after the last few movies. I worked in film and video for a while. Made me want to poke my eyes out.
Some nice aliens there, I suspect you and Deady could swap notes.
No.1 son had a chipped XR6T and whilst it went hard I felt it had no soul it was a very disconnected driving experience and the fuel gauge dropped at a frightening rate ( was capable of spinning the wheels at lock me up freeway speeds)

I suppose that’s a fair comment Dave, I’ve not done a lot of track driving so I bow to your experience on that score.
I will say that, in my driving experience, I have found my GT a much better connected drive compared to my prior cars (Lancer VRX, a raft of Commodores for work (I shudder still), Mitsubishi 380, EB Fairmont, various Lasers, EL, BA, BF, AU, FG Falcons and a VH Valiant Charger.

Nothing to do with track experience FW, it just felt disconnected a polar opposite to my diesel Forester that has feel in the steering and brakes.
The track car is a whole other experience, totally raw with no padding or noise suppression anywhere, power assisted nothing and rock hard suspension, actually not all that pleasant on the road but comes to life above the legal freeway limit.
Note. I get my thrills on the track, the road is no place for heroes and wannabes
That looks cool man. Did you ever get it made? There’s a website: Redbubble that lets you print your own work on a variety of different materials. I was even considering printing headstock plate designs onto metal through them. It’d save effort on waterslide decals etc. Never gave it a go yet, but it’s something to think about.Some Alien based artwork from an ill fated attempt at t-shirt design...
