My 17 year old son just asked to take my car to prom

JWillis72 · 04-15-2014, 07:22 PM

I said that to my wife as soon as he was out of the room!

Just be sure to throw an extra coat of wax on the hood just in case

I've been there and learned a lot. He's never let me down. I have very little concern about trusting these things to him these days.

I let my son take my 640 rwhp car to his prom (full cage lol) -

...I used my handheld programmer to load a tune specific to him...

- Pulled all the timing out of it

- Rev limited to 4,000 rpm (to hold it to about 400 hp)

- Traction control locked on

- Speed limited to 75 mph

Worked great

Apparently my wife and him had this conversation before I knew about it and she said he could take her Veloster Turbo if I said no. Then he showed my wife her dress and my wife said he not going anywhere with her and a back seat! He's a great kid but lets face nothing destroys a god man like a bad woman!

You are not funny! If there are *** prints on the carbon fiber there will be hell to pay! Now that you pointed this out we WILL have this conversation!

Just tell him traction control on.

Fück it. It's a car. I hope your son is safe... And gets laid

I'm sure he's a great kid. But I want you to take a look at the attached pic. That GTR was also driven by a 17 y.o. great kid. He didn't drink and got straight A's. He's now in a wheelchair for life.

Please don't do it. A 17 y.o. does not possess the driving skills.

Put uprev tune on it. Car won't go over 55mph and over 3500rpm. Problem solved.
