    CT5-V WTF - melting piston

    It's exactly what I told him too as well. This is an excerpt form the message I sent that you can find in the post above: "shit happens, accidents happen, how we respond in these situations is ultimately what dictates our growth or failure. At a minimum, you should've said thank you for sharing...

    CT5-V WTF - melting piston

    When you dump $75k in a build only to blow a motor due to incompetence followed by complete lack of accountability, it gives you a solid reason to ensure others aren't going in blind.

    CT5-V WTF - melting piston

    https://omnimotorsportssucks.com/ Thank you all for your suggestions. I reached out to the owner to give them an opportunity to own the consequences as one of their employees seemed to make fun of the situation on IG via stories. "Since Ricky seems to be making light of the situation, joking...

    To absolutely no one's surprise, there it goes. We knew it was on borrowed time when we saw that piston. To

    CT5-V WTF - melting piston

    Long story short, I was checking out my buddies BlackWings get tuned by Justin White. Since I was there in person and saw how much better they ran after he did his thing, I decided to have him check mine out, why the hell not right? This is a serious machine I daily drive, I want it running the...

    Yeah but how do they handle at speed? 150-180

    CT5-V Mini tubbing

    Just to clarify, I don't want drag radials, just wider UHP tires. I used to own a Viper with 355's and that had a lot more traction (granted car was lighter too).

    CT5-V Mini tubbing

    I was an early EV adopter and run the world loudest EV audio build with 400 volt amplifiers. No hate here, just sadness that this car seems to have performance limits due to traction issues on the street. The Air Sapphire can hit 1.8 0-60 with the new tires on it. I've spent almost $200k in...

    I guess the only choice is going to a AWD microwave then 😭

    CT5-V Mini tubbing

    Yeah, but that is on a track on drag radials on a fully prepped surface. I want better traction on UHP tires on the street since grandma Edna in her used $50k Plaid won't be burning out to get her tires hot for that 1.8 second 0-60 launch 😆 Just want more daily usable traction on non drag...

    Wondering if we can tub the inner wheel well to get a 355 or 375 tire on the car. Anyone done this yet?

    For Sale 23' manual 5BW 1020WHP

    21k miles, 6 speed, 2023, over $80k in receipts in add-ons Make an offer if serious, consider a used similar mileage is going for ~85k and I dumped almost $80k in it (will share all receipts), so don't low-ball. Think about what you'd think is fair in my position. 1020WHP Selling so I can get...

    427 w ported whipple

    I have no illusions about maintaining any sort of resale value. No other car is interesting to me. The only other car I would consider is getting back into a Viper but that's not practical given I have two kids and my main concern is having a daily that is fun. The last thing I want is...
