All these Ford shill posts really affected me

Bought a stealth gray RS yesterday. It’s pretty cool, I guess. Autocrossing it here in the Dayton area on Saturday. Best way to break in your car is go race it.

Coolest part is how it totally sounds like a Subaru. And the super rallye exhaust popping when shifting at revs.

Umm, no. Aren’t you supposed to break them in gradual?

Wasted time at a Ford dealership and they’re still charging 5k over msrp.

I got mine at MSRP, which I was fine with paying. I can’t understand how any dealer thinks they’re gonna get greed money still when there’s plenty of them out in the wild. My dealer had 3. Two with the RS2 package (blue and gray) one without (black). I opted for the gray, and it also has the 18inch winter wheel/tire package with it.

Did it come with the extra wheels in the trunk or something?

They’re sitting at the service department, since the wheels are actually tied to the VIN and the vehicle order from the factory. I just gotta go pick them up.

That’s a weird looking Vista cruiser

Autox is how I broke in my last two cars. I did 6 events in my BRZ before I got the metal plates.

6 events before you could get off the temp plates? I want to come live in your region.

If you want to drive the car for years, yes. If not, well, its the next guy’s problem.

I’ve been known to drive up to OKC and down to Houston once or twice a year (Houston runs year round and it’s hard to go from the beginning of November to the end of February without an event, luckily we sometime squeeze in a couple of winter events if the weather cooperates).

Just finished breaking in my FoST with an autocross. Go balls deep into every turn. It’ll be fine.

Water (?) spots on the wall make it seem like a perplexed sun is gawking at your car.

haha, just noticed. They’re actually a weird polyurethane cover for the busted-out windows of the warehouse. Building is, like, 8 stories tall, but I’m pretty sure all but the bottom floor (which is two stories high) are condemned/not used.
