    Now that's changed a lot from when I carried out the final inspection on the original car at Gaydon back in 2008/2009......
    This is an absolute epic build...
    So much passion and hard work has gone into heavily modifying this V8 Vantage..... Fairplay to the owner great vision and execution.... You sir are a legend in you own right for making this a beast of a vehicle.... Well done 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    When the owner of the Aston taps twice on each part he was pointing out I was losing it. In a good way. He's a humble vibe. You can still tell he's a wiz kid. I FREAKING LOVE JAPAN. People, food, culture, traditions, discipline. Every upload of cars meets, shows, races, on RUclips that I watch based out of Japan be it from Larry or anyone else, there is ALWAYS a few constants and that is, PEACEFULNESS, HAPPY yet very serious enthusiasm for the Automotive realm. ALWAYS. Just mad respect from me. This where I wanna live. I hope to be able to visit before I die from bs I was exposed to in the military.

  • @eedesign878
    @eedesign878 6 месяцев назад +1

    Yeah the rocks are flying from rear tires and not having rear bumper behind, not from the diffuser. Diffusers work great, as do low mounted wings, I design and make some from carbon and 3d-printed hollow core. But rock needs to be at least jumping from the tyre to start with to elevate it more in the suction. But this size diffuser just does not really produce enough suction to affect heavy stone on asphalt, albeit being on very effective height from ground. But I can totally get that the stones are directed by low pressure zone of any car really behind it, more towards middle.
