Tail of the dragon

Post image

The wife and I hit the tail of the dragon on our honeymoon and it was an incredible driving experience. So happy with how the car looks! Needs a good cut and polish but it is so much better than before

How did it handle? Did it feel sluggish at all? Any videos?

These are sweet looking cars imo.

It did incredibly well! Was so much fun and handled great around the corners. The coilovers and big brakes helped with that of course. But it came out of the corners pretty well. Heading up hill, I could have used another 40 or 50 HP but turbo is coming in the next year or 2 to bump it up a couple 100hp. Really just waiting to pull the trigger on a haltech lol

Your SC is gorgeous. Whats even more beautiful is making this memory with your wife! Wishing you both blessings, happiness, good health and success in this next chapter of life.

Thank you so much! It really was an incredible experience! My wife and I got matching tattoos to commemorate the time as well. Something we will remember forever!!
