The suspension is pretty much rock-hard. The rear tires don't hit anything. They're actually well-used drag slicks, meant to kinda appear like the stock tires did. They're well-used, so I'm going to have to spend a bunch of money getting the right tires on there. The previous owner did a whole lot of burnouts. I can't blame them, though they could have at least replaced the tires!
They don't rub on corners or bumps - so far. They do fill up the wheel well, but they don't seem to bump into stuff. Right now, there's not a whole lot of bumps. So, there's that... It also doesn't rub in sharp corners. But, it is fun to burn some rubber with it. By the time I'm done with it for the week, it'll need some expensive rear tires. Sadly, they have to match the existing tires, so I'm looking at some expense. I suspect two of 'em will be about $1200. I should be fine on the front tires.
If you're not too busy, I tend to ask once a week, you could give linux-tips.us some love. Not too many clicks today - but it's steadily growing. I'm tempted to put up one of those 'please unblock our ads' notifications.
It may have been the angle of the pictures that made it appear as if it would rub. I can imagine that the back tires would be spinning and burning rubber just with a heavy accelerator foot. '
I did the thing on the site, it was difficult to find anything to click on, they were very few and far between
Thanks for putting in the effort. When in doubt, you can click the home page (at the top left) and it kinda resets the ads. The site's value is increasing but the ad placement is lagging behind. That'll likely change over the next 30 to 60 days. We shall see...
Today, I got a notice from them that I'd had more than 3.5k visitors from search results. (That's a lot for my site, but it has been growing since Google took me out of the penalty box.)
The rear tires rotate easily - and in a fun way. It's very controllable, and very predictable. While I have not yet, I could see me driving it like it's on a track - mainly steering into the corner and then controlling the angle with the gas pedal, adding 'opposite lock' as needed. (Today, jackasses would call it drifting.)
Also, I have to ask... It probably gives away a future surprise, but what is your favorite color?
My favorite color is blue usually, sometimes red, and all my vehicles are black. That is a difficult question. I like all the colors. Some for certain things and some for other things. You know. But my stock answer is generally blue, like the sky.
It's nice that the goog is directing people to your site when they search for answers to their linux questions.
And that car looks like it would be a blast to drive. Smoking those tires whenever you want them to. Remember when Biff took a car and smoked the tires in front of the school? She could have done a hell of a cloud of rubber smoke with that car!!
