@kpg81. Please tell me some of those cars get track time... Not talking about the horse. [emoji6]

Guys I grew up in S OC, garages and stables like that are a dime a dozen. Out there the ballers have 100+' yachts and private jets.

Oh, and where is the GT3RS?

You are definitely right, I'm a poor person out here in South OC vs many of the top dogs. The mean streets where I live only have a local Ralph's and Pavilions, vs a Whole Foods or Gelsons. The struggle is real here in the ghetto.

I have a GT3rs Lego car I'm almost done building with my son lol.

UPDATE: Latest Whipple tune is terrific. While I always understood the old soft pedal as a form of eco-mode to keep people out of the boost the latest tune feels more like driving a big block in normal mode. Absolutely terrific.

So I see you have a 1 horsepower vehicle right in the middle! Your stable is insane, that Mclaren.... Just wish we made product for it so I could "test" a few of them

sounds like a test drive is in order up to Fresno

No jumping for anyone ! Just an old beater of a horse that has been relieved to trail riding purposes lol.

I agree with you about the tune- normal mode is great.. crazy amount of low end torque vs stock- very diesel-like in the low RPM range. Throttle response is exactly where I had it with my pedal command too. It's so nice not have to push the pedal much to get this beast up and moving. Gear shifts are nice and firm and very quick.

Put it in sport mode, manual Paddle shifting, and turn off traction control- holy hell it's a lot of fun !

^^ This, coming from a guy who has a McLaren and a GTR!! The Raptor gets a thumbs up and even us mortals can afford one.

I tell this to everyone, but the Raptor is the PERFECT compliment to a sports car(s). It drives perfect.. I love the transmission now with the tune. Plenty of power, drives and handles great for a big truck.

If it came down to it, i'd give up the McLaren and the GTR before I gave up my Raptor, and I am not kidding. I love the truck! Keep in mind I owned 5-6 Chevy Trucks in the past. No more Chevy's for me!

Well I got the updated tune in and truck runs much better and only glitches were pinging/knocking for 2 seconds at 1/3 throttle at 70mph, also I nailed the gas and the trans didn’t do anything for 5 seconds while it thought about it. Lol I figured the computer is stilll getting used to the new tune. I will go drive it around tomorrow see if it acts up again but all in all it seems a whole lot better.

With the previous (2nd release) tune I had one moment taking off from a stop where the engine revved but acted like it wasn’t in gear, I let off the gas and it engaged again. That has been my only issue with any of the three tunes to this point. Flashed the latest last night, nothing but positive results so far.

Mine has done that a few times on the last tune 2nd one, felt like a slipping clutch is the best way I could describe it.
