or at least say something constructive to help him be better if you're put off by something.
people with nothing better to say, going out of their way (even if it is just a few keystrokes) to make someone feel like shit is fucking pathetic. Last edited by beltax90; 10-14-2020 at 02:36 AM. |

No hate here. Just my honest take on why this hasn't been well received.
I think what he is doing is extremely outdated. There have been an exhausting amount of street/track builds now and we have seen these parts on 95% of the builds here since 2013. (Not excluding my own). There isn't anything new or exciting here. The last thing we need is another person trying to explain to us why we need these parts when they have been out and proven for years. This forum has been so packed full of new and innovating ideas for so long. Now that the platform has been developed, and the new ideas have plateaued, this type of content just seems like a repetitive cash/likes grab from ft86 speedfactory. Or whatever it is called now. You want our attention? Steal Jeremy's time attack FRS and continue development on that. BC that is what it is going to take to get our views in an extremely diluted market.

That and why do aero mods on a car only running Hankook V12 Evo's. Money would be better spent on a good 200TW tire first

OMG this. As an HPDE instructor I constantly see novice, first time drivers adding aero to their car WAY before their skills have developed enough to even remember where they are going on track. I get it, it looks cool. But it is FAR from the first thing you should do.

I think there's still plenty of people who enjoy the detailed installs and informational videos. There may be a lot of content out there, but it's not created well and not easily digestible. As for Jeremy's car. That thing isn't going anywhere anytime soon if at all. |

Again, no hate from me. I could never talk on camera like you do. So props there. Just my 2 cents on why this hasn't been well taken on the forum.

Not a problem, I completely understand and I'm used to the criticism by now. I'm just working with what I have available so if people find it entertaining / interesting then that's awesome, if they don't that's ok too. I'm doing these videos for myself and they're in no way connected to ft86speedfactory besides the fact that I get my parts from there. I just thought if I was going to do it, I may as well document it for others. I do appreciate the feedback. |
