[@PreludeDude]

Bottom line they're teammates and that means they need to help each other grow. Chelsea is still the better driver of the two, but Adam is definitely quickly gaining in skill and technique, execution, follow thru, etc. Chelsea is there to set the example and lend advice both as an old friend and as a professional teammate. That said, I think everyone hates Florida rain!!! Heavy rainfall did him dirty for sure.

I gotta say, when I watched your run during FD I felt like both your lead and chase looked 100% top pro level. Had you not spun out from the water I actually think you could have won that whole event. I can tell by car placement, speed, angle, and timing that you’ve clearly gotten much better. The spin was unfortunate but I was so excited to see your level of driving from start to finish on this one. I have no doubt that you’ll get better as this season goes on and, if you keep your focus, next will be your year. I’m pumped

[@Hellofadrive]

sadly he had to much angle but otherwise if he won that round i think top 8 was achievable

[@curequranavirustoday6467]

In the s15 Adam was doing good it's just weird coincidences that in front of him people slow down before corners to make him wreck into them either weird coincidences or drivers playing dirty to mess with Adam's head and get him to think he's doing something wrong when he wasn't

[@curequranavirustoday6467]

Because of those unusual slowdowns before corners fd ended up putting a special light on the car to catch people drifting dirty to make the guy behind em wreck

[@curequranavirustoday6467]

Adam should've done great his 1st fd seasons if half the drivers didn't unusually lose speed before a corner or in corner to make him crash into em

[@curequranavirustoday6467]

Fd needs more camera angles but as rigged as this sport has been the less cameras the better the less evidence of unusual activity going on during events

[@Forcefed2002]

Main reason for those spark plugs is due to cylinder pressure/temp...you can use more of it (and timing) without causing the strap to glow and detonate the A/F charge

[@duanebailey6253]

Ya the strap is a huge heat sink. Looks like carbon can build up and cause an issue very easy.

[@kasper_429]

Adam really needs to build a seat time S550 Mustang to practice with in the off season. He's getting better, but I feel like him switching between all of his JDM turbo cars and his N/A Mustang comp car is holding him back a little bit. The power bands are completely different, and you can tell he's trying to drive the Mustang like a turbo car when he could be driving it like Chelsea does, revving it to the moon and holding his foot down to the floor on the throttle. I know everybody drives differently, and I know Chelsea didn't have the best start in his Mustang, but still. Lol. I guess I'm just impatient, but I really wanna see Adam do well and at least podium if not win a stage.

[@Dale_Sigmon]

I feel like he can set up a poor man's version of this and run cluthkickers with it. If your already pouring money into running clutch kickers with an E46 built 2j and dogbox, I can't imagine an s550 with a coyote motor 5 speed hydro and angle would run you much more

[@bf6554]

Great comment. But that's not how Adam or money works. Vaughn and Chelsea come from money. So Adam is right now basking in the glory of that. Adam was better off running his own program with his own S15 that was built by enjuku.

[@Tnbazz1330]

An S550 would feel nothing like this car at all...

[@curequranavirustoday6467]

S15 new z fits Adam more he can go full send in those the stang is inconsistent ev3n Chelsea spins it sometimes but m3s r great for drifting too but if Adam thinks stang is the best let him decide for himself what's best

[@justanotherinternetdude8847]

Man I think if there wasn’t a restart if you were able to keep that follow the whole lap (and judging by the way you initiated when the shutdown happened) you would have and with that lead lap you did given the angle, it would have been a win in that round. But it sucks seeing you not be able to crack top 32 yet you qualify pretty well. I know it is a new platform but I think the RTR team and LZMFG just need to find a way to pool some money and get you going hard every day for a week to hammer the issues out. Because we want to see you in the great 8 and beyond because we know you can get there.
