I completely disregarded the Goodwood bit, I was merely trying to think of an older valuable car that you have and have not driven yet. I can't remember them all. I didn't even remember this specific car but I did think that you had purchased an old Cobra so I went with it!

It almost looks like the back tires might rub on the fenders, looks to be tight.

That one is set up specifically as a drag racer though, isn't it?

It looks awesome as can be!!!

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?
