The suspension looks stiff. Are those coilovers adjustable?

This car was way ahead of its time. It's clearly riding on 24s.

Check out the antique race built 9/10's of a circle steering wheel!! It's designed for high speed corners for maximum grip and safety! Made of 100% professionally crafted metal. Careful of slamming on the Brembo's at 12mph, you might smash your mouth on it...

Ah crap, well, I made up for it by labeling the high performance bicycle tires on the 2nd picture I made. I mean check out the tread pattern on it, designed for maximum grip while rocketing throughthe Nurberguring(yes I know I mispelled it)
