I'm wondering on the effectiveness of traction control with so much HP and torque available. Does it still work, or is it overwhelmed by the instantaneous torque? How does the car perform as a daily driver? How does that much power affect drivability on tight windy roads? |

Just an update...
The car is driving great. I have just over 6K miles on the car. It will be a year old in about 3 weeks. It is my daily driver and only vehicle. The rear tires are practically bald! Yet, I haven't been doing any burn outs. I ordered some Continental Extreme Contact DWS replacement tires. The bald rear tires are scary to drive when it is raining. I get about 22mpg on the highway and 14mpg in town. That is not bad for a 650hp supercharged car. I have not found any wheels I like well enough to replace the polished RS wheels I have. I will keep looking, though.

Tires are ordered, Continental ExtremeContact DWS - 2 x 315/35x20 shipped. 2 x 275/40x20 were ordered on April 5 and are still back ordered. I had ordered a pair for my stock rear wheels. They will now go on my front Cor Brava wheels...if the tires ever ship.
TPMS sensors shipped. I just made the payment to Nine Ball for the wheels, so those should be here in 6 to 8 weeks, hopefully.

I hope to have the Cor Brava wheels by my birthday, July 12th, but I won't hold my breath. I have had no word about them, but it has not been 6-8 weeks, yet. They were ordered Friday May 13th. This Friday will be 6 weeks.
