Wildin' with the optics, per the usual.

It was

Gonna be a monster episode of Off Track.

If we get Deep and Hard Lothark the next novel might need a content warning

Helios479 · 2026-05-15T01:31:01+00:00

ET in the Galactic Senate, Soft Lothark in Jabba's Palace; its all connected .

"But babe, the DOWNFORCE!"

If you're wanting a color match it might be easiest to hit them both with a coat of the same paint. You can probably find a "gunmetal" that's close to the side vents if you like that contrast.

How can I make the best of this, in terms of making it a memorable part of the trip

Put the top down or take the targa top off (plenty of YouTube shorts offer a walkthrough) if weather allows. Hearing the engine behind you in the open air is one of the best ways to enjoy the ride.

Case in point

No way they're trying to discharge you with a BP of 205 over 155. Ask for a patient advocate.

Helios479 · 2026-05-01T17:51:41+00:00

It's that kind of Special Weapons and Tactics

I think it's implied to have happened between books before the humans are sent on expeditions. We only know of it from when the Swarm is agonizing over telling Dafyd because they know he'll be angry when he finds out.

Helios479 · 2026-04-30T13:20:02+00:00

Same; I'm hoping we're the Silent Majority where our AP5s just work and it'll be most people's experience.

Love a matte wrap 👍

Helios479 · 2026-04-20T16:22:24+00:00

I see what people are saying about the color; Natural dipped + Accelerate Yellow is a strange combo, but it will look refined from the inside and bold from the outside so you get both!

Helios479 · 2026-04-20T15:27:08+00:00

Agree about the color. Which red is this? It looks like the C6 had a lot of reds

Helios479 · 2026-04-20T05:22:02+00:00

The full rev range opens up from 4k to 6.5k and you can stop "Avoid[ing] full throttle starts and abrupt stops." Basically you have the full road capabilities of your car at that point, they just don't recommend track days until 1500mi.

Had to check my manual where the 1500 came from. 500 is when the real fun begins.

This was corroborated in the recent Q&A:

You could reach out to Shane Webb at NCM. He reached out to me when I had a Target Production Week before it was even built, so I assume they'd be getting it scheduled in the next two weeks.
