I think this is just the latest in a long line of Japanese wackiness.

So I got a warning for my apparent racisim in this thread, so as a Mod will someone warn you about your reference here to the mentally challeneged? I mean thats just as innapropriate in most peoples eyes....

I might be new here, but Ive been a Mod and on forums for the past 12 or so years, and NEVER had a warning about anything.

I was simply having a bit of fun like everyone else.

Ah well. Sorry if I have offended anyone.

Dave.

at least they can see the road in front of them, nose high is even more ways of dumb. Its the whole "i want to look like I'm hard launching all the time" look.
What a way to make a good car look bad. At least having the nose down a little has some actual driving benefits.

What was the prize there, the person to make their car look the most shithouse wins a prize? I can't think of any benefits there, you could say front end wont launch off the ground but then aerodynamic inefficiency will probably come back to bite you in the ****

I agree but isn't the nose high just leaf springs that need to be reset don't tell me that people actually want that look
