Its a tribute to the 787B Le Mans car seen here: http://www.fd3s.net/787B/

I personally dig it but the ride height is higher than mad mikes and none are action pics, thats making a fair difference in perception.

LOL kind of obvious its paint it like the 787b

I do not like the ride height, color combo or body kit on Tony's 8. But that is just my opinion which is worth nada

Lol, wasn't sure if you were aware. Hey, everyones opinions are equal so that means yours is just as important as anyone elses. Or perhaps everyone's opinions are worth nada :-O

Ugh, I need to stop wasting time in this thread and get back to work!

ok, did you just become my english teacher? are you saying i can't say words like cool, dope, wicked, the bomb diggity forealios??

how about you stick with the main topic here and stop making fun of my engrish.

if i can't use the word 'aggressive' to describe the look this thread is trying to show, what am i supposed to use? please, tell me professor.

it's just a different style people like to see. no one said it was a smart/safe idea. goodness, so uptight about the dumbest things...

autocross is gay, even though I have been to over a dozen. but in reality you pay around $30 for 2 mins of driving time, then the reminder of the day you spend in the ****** heat

uh... no. autox is not gay. Just because you dont go 100+mph doesnt mean anything. You learn more about your car in one sesh of autox than a whole day at the track. And $30 for 2mins? You're getting ripped off man...

think about it how much driving time do you get the whole day? No way, you learn a lot more in the track. Autocross does make you a better driver, and requires more skill, but one session isn't gonna do squat.

in my experience I saw people driving in track days making the same horrible driving mistakes lap after lap and event after event... especially the track days where there is no instructor in the car. So i'll ask if the drivers are learning good things at some track days or just cementing in bad behaviors.

Doesn't necessarily mean autocrossing would solve this, two entirely different styles, as I'm sure you're aware.

I would say it is good to at least try autox, it does help you get a better feel of overall car control imo. I've been to a handful and do not regret it...
