Maybe is doesn't affect you, but I have seen accidents from it, near accidents from it and seen people take up two lanes just to barley creep across a set of tracks I barley felt when driving at normal speeds.. That to me is impractical..


Btw I like how the car looks, but not so much with the huge negative camber tho.. Funny all the cars shown drifting and racing that are hella low.. Still don't have all that ridicules amounts of camber..
I slow down for most train tracks, but most railroad crossings by me are bad enough to make my van bottom out at the speed limit. On the very rare occasions that I have had to slow down a lot for something I've thrown on my hazards... It all comes down to whether or not the owner is an idiot, it's easy to make a car so low or flush that it's difficult to drive, but it's very difficult to tell if that is the case with a car just by looking at a picture. If they put time into making everything fit and work right then the car should drive like any other car. But if they slapped on some cheapo coilovers and random sized wheels then there's a good chance the car will ride like shit, drive like shit, and be rubbing and scraping all over.

I was meeting up with some food truck and I was behind him as he turned into the plaza. There was a car that was relatively far enough for me to turn in with no problem but my friend took FOREVER to get over the damn driveway that I drove around him (it was a really big drive way) because if I had waited for him to finish doing some weird olympic-moving-car-sideways I probably would've gotten hit (that is if the other driver wasn't paying attention) but I didn't and drove around.

Needless to say he was super pissed but I told him.. "you're goin too slow man.." and he laughed. :P
Tell Minh AJ said whats up, haha.
