Hello Forum!
I picked up my new FGT TT last night and drove it from Lufkin, Texas to Dallas (about 4 hours). For all of you that know the car, it’s Berne’s old solid red twin turbo that I purchased from Andy House. I like the car, just not use to driving a twin turbo. The car does a funny thing when I am stopping for a red light or stop sign. Just as I stop, the RPM’s run up and then the oil pressure and RPM’s falls. Car stalled on me a few times and I think its driver error. I was hoping some other forum members have had similar experiences and can suggest a remedy to my driving style. Does seem to not drop if when slowing down I put the car in neutral and release the clutch.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Any comments about the car? Andy, from Performance Auto, was great to work with and I feel gave me a great deal. He also installed the bumper delete, tinted the tail lights and side markers and added the matte black stripes. I odered a bunch of cool items from Andy at Exoticare and will be ordering more from other sponsoring vendors.
I do like the car and it drives very well. It looks and sounds great too. I need some practice with first gear and driving it off the line, seems the Spec clutch is either in or out.
In North Dallas if anyone is close.
Thanks for your help.
