Cool Am I The Only Volvo Driver Here? LOL

Howdy all, I'm sort of new here though I used to be a member way back in the day.

Recently got me a S60R, its a sporty daily driver family sedan. I still got about a year and a half of warranty left but once its expires I'll be modding the software, exhaust and intercooler to put it closer to 400 horses.

As it stands stock its got 300 HP and 295 ft-lbs put down through a six speed manual and all wheel drive with nice big brembos all the way around to slow things back down. Great creature comforts all the way around to boot.

For those of you didn't know Volvo actually makes a sportscar just google S60R to see all the neato features this car has.

I'll be making it out to a few autocrosses and track events when time allows to see how well it competes. See some of you all soon.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
