    People are idiots!!!

    I gave up motorcycles back in 2007/2008, just at the beginning of smart phones. I'm in the north NJ/New York City area. It was frustrating enough dealing with regular bad drivers back then, I couldn't imagine it now.

    I am not sure I love my 5BW

    In regards to the parking brake... Dont push the button to release it. Just go. It disengages automatically.

    Spring Mountain Impressions

    I think i called in November for the first time and finally booked a few months later when dates opened up. The first date available was in April, and I took delivery the prior March so I would have been over a year. Spring Mountain mentioned I'd just need extension and that they would contact...

    GM Unveils the ‘Whopping’ Price of Their Flagship EV for 2024

    I'm waiting to see the price of the electric escalade being unveiled in 2 days. That should be interesting.

    First CT5V BW in the 9s

    Does it have 20s? I thought it was the stock 19s when I watched the vid.

    What are you all paying for insurance?

    ~3500/yr with USAA, but that's for 6 cars(3 w/full coverage) and a valuable personal property policy too.

    CT5-V Feedback For 2024 CT5-V Blackwing HPDE Build

    Like Prime said, cf1 is functional, cf2 is cosmetic.

    CT5-V Feedback For 2024 CT5-V Blackwing HPDE Build

    Seems reasonable. The pdr is probably one of the more important options if you plan to track the car. Other stuff is all pretty standard. However the cf1 may be tricky to get. Depends on constraints and allocations available. Not impossible though.

    Tall Steve's Blackwings

    Nice, but I think they installed the steering wheel stripe wrong. /s

    4Bw IMSA Edition-Decals, keep or remove?

    I would say, if you can get replacement decals, do it. Keep them stored safe and flat and well taken care of so that if/when you sell the car, you can give them to the new owner and they can decide to put then on again, or toss em.

    Pics of your Blackwing in regular parking spots

    I actually used my Cadillac umbrella from my door pocket that my wife got me. A lot of people actually had umbrellas but just one Amphibicar. The Huracan Evo pulled in right before the first round of light rain. His wife and dog came in the FF.

    Newbie question: no crackles/pops on CT5V BW?

    I have 3 projects, one I haven't touched for 3 years, one for 10 years, and 1 for 23 years. That's why I love my BW, no work needed, just drive and enjoy. And yes, Global B refers to the encryption of the current computer systems since so many systems are now "drive by wire".

    Newbie question: no crackles/pops on CT5V BW?

    Since Global B was only recently cracked, It should be safe to say that no one has attempted a popcorn free tune yet. Maybe it is possible through tuning trial and error though, just a matter of time.

    Newbie question: no crackles/pops on CT5V BW?

    Cold starts will always be a little noisy I believe, but you could switch the v mode or MyMode and set the exhaust to "stealth" or "0" setting. Its not 100% rolls royce quiet, but much much less than track and/or full open which is, I think, setting "4". And then in vmode/mymode you can turn...

    Picked up a CT5-V yesterday

    The base of the car says blackwing which is incorrect. The black one does at least have nicer wheels than the red version.
