[@thespudmonke]

In 2017 I was at a Cars and Coffee where the Gia Lai Team showed up. They are notorious for being very loud when they leave. I shot a video sitting on the curb about 10 feet behind one of their Aventadors as it bounced off the limiter for a solid 20 seconds. Every back fire felt like getting punched in the chest, and I felt the heat of every flame that spat out the back of it. My ears rang for the next few minutes after. A 3 rotor I saw at a drag strip was significantly louder from the stands than that Aventador from 10 feet. Calling it a monster does it absolutely no justice.

Bruh do you understand what a drift build is? The whole point is to make a ton of noise and burn rubber on the tarmac. There’s plenty of McLarens that can go round a track quick and with little drama. Building one to go sideways through corners and destroy tires is something truly unique.

[@dandangsxr]

@onkarlally so they've taken a car that's perfectly capable of doing that, made it look worse, louder, and eventually, pointless. The original P1 is a great looking car. too bad they messed up this 1 , in my opinion

@onkarlally for the price of that car, I'd build a sleeper that did both. As an engineer, I much prefer a wolf in sheep's clothing, not much to look at, until it matters. I'm sure the owner of that car loves it, and has the financial means not to care about the cost, clearly, but to me, it's just overdone, which to me isn't attractive or something I'm interested in.
