S5000

Anyone else keen to see this get started this weekend?
I'm stoked Rubinho came over, and he seems to be getting to grips with it:

Almost worth a quick grin
You like the feel of steel
You're hot stuff with a hatpin
And good fun with a handgun

A big props to GRM for preparing these cars.
Only one retirement, and 8 cars only had their first run on Wednesday. ;)

They sound approximately 1000x better live. Even the TV nowhere near does the sound justice. Even the TCR cars sound heaps better live than on TV.

Yep, they have a beautifully deep tone.
