Speaking of launching your car and Azenis... your launch is THE single most horrendous sound that we regularly hear. I don't know what it is about those tires, but, they let out a squeal like no other!

(you should launch more like Tonda :thumbwink: )

Push Harder - Drive as close to the limit of your tires as possible.
Suck Less - Drive something resembling a proper racing line.
