I can't understand why F6's are so slow once modified. Whether it's weight or gearing, they're all the same.MPH is always there, power is being made.

I can't understand why F6's are so slow once modified. But are they? How many modded auto Phoons are there with published track times?

Probably something to do with the 6-speed manual.You know what they say, if you can't beat them, join them. Might go looking for a new F6 Auto Typhoon soon.

You can't put on that much weight and not have it hugely effect performance.
