Just hooked up a new 2011 RA

Hey there, Just bought a new RA today, been wanting one for awhile and went to the Dealer today and traded in my 06 GTO on it. Pretty stoked on it so far... Have a few plans for mods in the future but not anything too crazy lol.

Thanks everyone! Yeah I'm stoked on my RA for sure. Its definitely a different experience coming from RWD V8s for the last 20 years... I'm sure the whole modding gig is way different with FI cars as well but been reading up on different threads and there's a grip of good info

Anyways good to be part of the RA community now

As it was designed for Rally!!! "Rally..art", I really like this name.
Yes, lower the car would look great. However, I didn't lower it as I really enjoy how it rocks in snow. Too bad, winter is gone, but I still play it in mud. It just wonderful on any situation.

Well the GTO was a fun car but I had a grip of problems with mine... plus it wasnt safe to drive in any other weather condition except for Summer and dry roads.
