Default Drive them…

I was vacillating on taking the car out today in the damp (road spray with no rain is the worst) but said screw it and look what showed up. $400K car.

The RS is an amazing car but still can’t imagine paying 400k for one. But then again a guy with a Bugatti in his fleet that is pocket change.

The newer (especially the newest) RS is a race car. Imo the coolest looking new car available to purchase anywhere under a million bucks. It's insane looking.

OP agreed. No rain ground wet makes a mess 🤣 but life is too precious to discount putting things off. Its a car. It'll get clean again.

The only other crappy part is not being able to push it some with confidence. The best part of owning this car.

I look forward to hearing your take on your car at VIR compared to all the others you have run there..
