Oh wow, that’s dramatic.I actually wanted the CX-30 to have a bit of a smaller car but my head was hitting the roof in the driver seat. The change in head room between the two is like a 7-8 inches.

There's an old saying that goes "you shouldn't bring anything to the track you can't afford to leave there."Buddy just wrecked his 765LT at COTA in our last run session of the day. And it’s his birthday.
Obviously no normal insurance, but any kind of track/hagerty something that would cover some of it? Don't you run your best cars as well, or was that reserved for stuff like the Corvette.It was a heart breaker. 1 of 1 spec. Hard life lesson, but necessary, to be honest. Just didn’t want it to happen this way.
KN seems to be the slightly younger less put together sibling. This leads to some more interesting things like bolder styling and interiors, but you seem to lose some of the sophistication Hyundai inherits from their Genesis lines. The Stinger and the K5 were also striking when they came out. Seems a perfectly serviceable econobox, but then there's so few in the small sedan category there's not much option.Anyone have thoughts on the Kia K4?

I know, I know, it's a Kia. But Kia has been doing really well with new design and reliability. Not to mention good warranty. Same company as Hyundai, well, not quite, but Hyundai has a controlling share in Kia, and I've had a Hyundai Sonata for almost 14 years. It has 200K miles on it and it's totally reliable on long or short trips. No major work ever done to the Sonata. If Kia is building with the same quality I'm considering it. They're good looking cars, and they seem to do well in the snow. Also have good safety ratings. The only issue is they don't come in manual transmission. I want that.
Only one carrier offers track insurance and it’s about $1,000 premium per $110,000 in stated value for a weekend. If you say your car is worth $220,000 it’s $2,000 for the insurance. 10% of the stated value is the deductible every time.Obviously no normal insurance, but any kind of track/hagerty something that would cover some of it?

Yeah, even if I had that* kind of money, I'd have a hard time wanting to do anything to risk that kind of money uncovered, so driving crazy on the streets sadly is kinda a better financial choice seems like.Only one carrier offers track insurance and it’s about $1,000 premium per $110,000 in stated value for a weekend.

took the gt3 this weekend and ran slow. Two minute 35-40 per lap. Vette was sold as it ultimately would have been too much to take a perfect car and cut it up to make it a good enough track car. Was a fun street car though.
this weekend our group had: three GT3s. Two gt2 RS. McLaren 720s, and the 765LT that was lost.
Man, you aren't wrong. It was a poor choice.Yeah, even if I had that* kind of money, I'd have a hard time wanting to do anything to risk that kind of money uncovered, so driving crazy on the streets sadly is kinda a better financial choice seems like.
So Jag dealer replaced sway bar mounts, and the long wait to even bring it in was waiting for the struts to come in. Then as Id said they decided they think it's strut towers which is what facebook said. Sent in for courtesy coverage, but denied. Kinda lame since it was recently out of full coverage warranty, under CPO, low miles. But they didnt like that im 3rd or 4th owner I forget.... ooookkk.
Well come to find out when they decided wanted to do strut towers, they found out that the struts actually whern't covered under CPO. And hadn't put them on yet. So now while I'm on the hook for the strut towers at $800, I'm a little annoyed that I had to wait a month to bring the car in, for struts they didnt do. Though out of pocket those were like $1600. But my concern is still if theyll even fix it with the strut mounts. Not the most confidence but I think the nearest independant euro mechanic of any good standing is out in OKC.
I did give the guy a little jab saying I guess theyd be less loose with courtesy coverage given they arn't even making any cars right now.
If you're getting flashed a lot, check the aim of your lights, they might be too high. The LED headlights are bright but if they are correctly aimed they shouldn't be blinding people.I feel this. I drive around with my hand on the brights lever at night because I get people flashing me so much I have to flash them back for them to realize I don’t have my brights on.

If you already did this then sorry, ignore... but most of the ones that really annoy me are mis-aimed.
