Prismatic Powders Bronze Chrome with satin clear.
My son decided, after one autocross that he was a race car driver, and proceeded to show off with one of his buddies in a 2010 Outback, which promptly understeered into a curb while cornering.
He calls me and says they got a flat and are having a hard time getting the spare on.
I show up and the drivers front wheel is broken in half and the LCA is bent 45 degrees to the rear.
My son and his buddy panicked and trying to put the donut on.

I don’t know.
But why do you use Celsius and MPH in the same post? Makes my brain hurt converting your C° then reading mph.

Funny how that works, autocross has made me LESS aggressive/likely to show off because I've had it go askew on course (sorry corner workers!). A couple seasons in and at least now I'm more familiar with the limits of the car, and just how much tires make a difference.
Same here, having a designated place to blow off steam made me a safe and cautious driver on the road. Just need to quiet the exhaust down a little bit and I'll be golden.

Been looking at my GTI and can say that I am done modding it.
Bilstein struts and H&R oe sport springs and a ClubSport S muffler.
Glad that I can feel done with the car at 65k miles. Now just to ride it out until the rust kills it!

A quiet(er) exhaust has changed my life. It's nice to be able to fly under the radar, it's got a bit of sound when under load but otherwise it's quiet as stock, although with mounts + SMF I have some chatter now. But that's livable, it's not obnoxiously loud. Though I still enjoy my loud cars, it's nice to have something quiet and comfortable to drive as well.

i mean technically the bird is still in 1st, so who's the real winner?
That's exactly what I want, to be able to overtake without sounding like a fast and the furious movie.
