Default How to drive a lowered car

I remember there being a thread with tips on how to drive a lowered car. I tried searching for it but can't seem to find it. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Mods can close this once I find it.

Thanks.

Press press turbo-boost and your car will fly like K.I.T. in Knight Rider. There's no single right way of how to drive over speed bumps, but there's a ton of wrong way of what not to do. Drive slow and at an angle if you can't ignore that street completely.

If you had to ask this question you shouldn't be driving a lowered car

gotta learn from somewhere. if you have to up inclines take them at extreme angles and hope for the best. pick new routes that do not require you to go over speed bumps, inclined ramps etc..

lowered cars look so much better, but too much of a hasle for me. I pulled off one of my mufflers on my 68 camaro going down a ramp onto a street from a gas station.. had to zip tie the ****er back up temporarily.. lol

lowered cars although looks super nice, but they are so hard to drive
you have to pay attention to whats on the road 100% of the time

Now, that is funny. When driving my wife swears that I can see and dodge pebbles on the road. I guess that's why I hate it when a soccer MILF is on the phone not paying attention to the road or not noticing me...lol.
