I have had this car for an extremely long time in my garage and every once in a while I work on a tune for it. I have been slowly working on a race tune, but it is just not super great yet. I decided to make a drift tune first as an 800+hp FR car is obviously going to be awesome. However, although it has lots of power it also weighs a lot. I really wish it weighed less, but it doesn’t matter too much for drifting. It is also more of a technical drift car as too much gas or not the correct turn-in etc may cause you to have a less than ideal drift. Overall, I really like the way the car looks, and the huge amount of hp still make it one of the better drift cars out there.
