I grew away from CL because I had my taste in the most extreme sides of VIP. I do come on to lurk around, but threads like this, or unappreciation in some other threads, reminds me why i don't come around here much. But the useful general information is still around here.

People have different tastes and opinions on any car forum. You shouldnt want to be on a forum where everyone thinks the same, how boring would that be?

Ok, I have to ask, because this thread has been pretty interesting. What is it like to actually drive a VIP car? I get that Indy and F1 cars have run some obvious camber on the front wheels, does VIP camber on the back wheels do anything for handling? I ask because I want to understand.

Ive never driven one, but I would have to believe that they dont handle that great set up like that. Hell, some of the cars pictured barely have any rear tire touching the ground.

My cars handle great. Lol but I dont drive like a maniac.
And the K-Break GS is sick! Stickers are for advertisement. They did it for the Tokyo Auto Salon I believe.
