Beautiful RCF. Have you considered debadging the "RC" from the rear? I just did a quick and dirty photoshop of it below.... That will be the first change I do when I get my RCF. To me, it looks so much cleaner...

Cool. Are you planning on doing FBO with your RCF like you had your ISF?

God that color is everything. Are there special matte paint wash instructions still or is that a thing of the past?

Yeah, that would be great. Do post some videos, pictures and your reviews of your baseline once you track it.

LOL...just kidding....the matte nebula looks great....how long was the wait on the Supra? Can you get us some driving comparisons?

Man I really love it. My ISF was pretty track focused towards the end so this is much more comfortable.

I use slalom mode on the streets every time I drive the RCF and you should notice a substantial difference in the initial turn-in, the on-center steering response and how the car exits out of the turns where you feel a push from the outer side to snap the nose in. Initially I used to use 'track' mode, but on the streets after comparing the feel of both, definitely the slalom mode on small city roads where maneuverability is more important, slalom mode is much more fun.
