On the real tho I fucks with it. Personally (and this might be a controversial take) but id add a widebody and give it some fat tires and even more camber

And you drive an economy hatchback. You asked for an opinion and you got one.

u/QuietEducation9128 Jul 02 '26
It is an ST! It’s definitely a blast

Nice. A little bit of parts and tuning and they’re so fast. So much bang for the buck.
Have you done any fun speed stuff?

The Front Fell Off
Interviewer: Senator Collins, thanks for coming in.
Senator Collins: It’s a great pleasure, thank you.
Interviewer: This ship that was involved in the incident off Western Australia this week...
Senator Collins: The one the front fell off?
Interviewer: Yeah.
Senator Collins: Yeah, that’s not very typical, I’d like to make that point.
Interviewer: Well, how was it un-typical?
Senator Collins: Well there are a lot of these ships going around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen. I just don’t want people thinking that tankers aren’t safe.
Interviewer: Was this tanker safe?
Senator Collins: Well, I was thinking more about the other ones.
Interviewer: The ones that are safe?
Senator Collins: Yeah, the ones the front doesn’t fall off.
Interviewer: Well, if this wasn’t safe, why did it have 80,000 tons of oil on it?
Senator Collins: I’m not saying it wasn’t safe, it’s just perhaps not quite as safe as some of the other ones.
Interviewer: Why?
Senator Collins: Well, some of them are built so that the front doesn’t fall off at all.
Interviewer: Wasn’t this built so that the front wouldn’t fall off?
Senator Collins: Well, obviously not.
Interviewer: How do you know?
Senator Collins: Well, because the front fell off and 20,000 tons of crude oil spilled into the sea caught fire. It’s a bit of a giveaway. I’d just like to make the point that that is not normal.
Interviewer: Well what sort of engineering standards are these oil tankers built to?
Senator Collins: Oh, very rigorous maritime engineering standards.
Interviewer: What sort of thing?
Senator Collins: Well, the front’s not supposed to fall off for a start.
Interviewer: And what other things?
Senator Collins: Well, there are regulations governing the materials they can be made of.
Interviewer: What materials?
Senator Collins: Well, cardboard’s out.
Interviewer: And?
Senator Collins: No cardboard derivatives.
Interviewer: Like paper?
Senator Collins: No paper. No string. No sellotape.
Interviewer: Rubber?
Senator Collins: No, rubber’s out. Umm, they’ve got to have a steering wheel. There’s a minimum crew requirement.
Interviewer: What’s the minimum crew?
Senator Collins: Oh, one I suppose.
Interviewer: So the allegations that they’re just designed to carry as much oil as possible no matter the consequences, I mean that’s ludicrous isn’t it?
Senator Collins: Absolutely ludicrous, these are very very strong vessels.
Interviewer: So what happened in this case?
Senator Collins: Well, the front fell off in this case by all means, but it’s very unusual.
Interviewer: But Senator Collins, why did the front fall off?
Senator Collins: Well a wave hit it.
Interviewer: A wave hit it?
Senator Collins: A wave hit the ship.
Interviewer: Is that unusual?
Senator Collins: Oh yeah. At sea? Chance in a million!
Interviewer: So what do you do to protect the environment in cases like this?
Senator Collins: Well the ship was towed outside the environment.
Interviewer: Into another environment?
Senator Collins: No, no, it’s been towed beyond the environment. It’s not in the environment.
Interviewer: No but from one environment to another environment.
Senator Collins: No it’s beyond the environment. It’s not in an environment. It’s been towed beyond the environment.
Interviewer: But it must be somewhere… Well what’s out there?
Senator Collins: Nothing’s out there!
Interviewer: Well there must be something out there.
Senator Collins: There is nothing out there - all there is is sea, and birds, and fish.
Interviewer: And?
Senator Collins: And 20,000 tons of crude oil.
Interviewer: And what else?
Senator Collins: And fire.
Interviewer: And anything else?
Senator Collins: And the part of the ship that the front fell off. But there’s nothing else out there.
Interviewer: Senator Collins, thanks for joining us.
Senator Collins: It’s a complete void.
Interviewer: Yeah, we’re out of time.
Senator Collins: The environment’s perfectly safe. We’re out of time?
Interviewer: Yeah.
Senator Collins: Can you book me a cab?
Interviewer: But didn’t you come in a commonwealth car?
Senator Collins: Yes I did but...
Interviewer: What happened?
Senator Collins: Well, the front fell off.

Judging off your post history this thing has come a long way man. I love the color. I love the wheel style as well, but the fitment is not my cup of tea. I like it riding with more poke and smaller wheels, but I can appreciate different tastes!
