Anybody figure out what this is about? Because my dealer has not responded to my inquiry. AFAIK the mag rims are not available yet if you ordered them or selected the SC Pack like me.

Come on somebody make there's like this with race seats and no FAL. I already got mine so too late.

 

[Free2Speed]

I have FAL and rarely use it. This car rides high. One guy here already lowered his STO - I may do the same since I have FAL.

I should say the theme of that car is stripped out no options. Except magnesium wheels. Just having some fun.

I spoke with someone at Thunderhill who said he had done it - no specifics. When I looked I think there are some H&R springs that might fit.

That exhaust has super weird tips 😕

Agreed. The only thing I can figure out is that they mention the Rolls Royce Trent engine and those little tips are similar to the rear of the jet engine.

Re. Balboni exhaust: I have enquired and someone named Boris friedman responded and asked for my location but seemed to not get my email. Hopefully, he got my second email ❓ It appears to eliminate the valves? No impact on cats? It will be encouraging to get further details.

Fwiw - My cp8 date was 27th of November 2021 and the dealer didn't get the car until late January 2022. I collected car on Feb. 1st.

Where are you located? Are you stateside? Well, we can't blame the Felicity Ace calamity for the delay because that didn't happen until the middle of February.

Northern California. Everything but the car has been slow. Still don't have a rear license plate bracket so I ordered one from Canada.

And that CP8 Nov. 27 Date I gave was from a August 27th (loom?) report fwiw. It was a print out they gave me with all the specs of my order. I think the ships take longer to get to the West Coast? Went into San Diego then has to trucked up to norcal.

It's syndrome Italiano V10 . Initially occurred to me even with a helmet on - like your head is in drum - dizziness and confusion after stepping out of the car - HOWEVER - you quickly acclimate to it and feel refreshed and euphoric after some practice. But to each their own. Customize your car for you. I also have a Balboni exhaust on order.

A little off topic but a friend of mine has a F150 Tremor on the way and because of the chip/parts shortage the climate control dial will no longer show the digital temp it is set to. It's just blank - they eliminated that function completely. There must be some other way to see what temp you set the HVAC to. Pretty lame!

Just got this on my app regarding my STO. anyone know what this is about? What improvements it makes? Anyone else get this prompt? Not sure what aerodynamic software could be when there’s no active aero.

Curious about this too. I still need to get the Magneride update, Mag wheels (they have the wheels) and this now from my dealer

STO Italian flag hood logo. My car came without and the logo will arrive in a week. It was suggested they are doing an improvement on the piece. The Lambo dealer said said if you hit it with a power washer the colors come off. And I saw one there where that had happened. Color was gone completely.

The dealer broke mine before delivery. Fortunately, they took photos and sent them to me Still waiting for them to fix it.

For those of you that has received your STO - anything that you wish you would have added to the spec? Or things that you don't think is necessary now that you've owned the car. Would love to hear on this topic.

I can't help but wonder what the Race seats are like. The sport seats are a let down. Not enough lumbar support. Some people have said the Race seats were altered slightly from earlier versions.

 

[Free2Speed]

Can anyone comment on STO using oil or Huracan in general? I am probably pretty close to 50% track/street at 3500 miles. Thing is I haven't had a chance to remove the engine cover even once. I keep telling myself I will but am always in a hurry. (Car is stored in a top-secret off site bunker )

 

[Free2Speed]

I am inclined to remove them from the frunk to prevent possible theft. The bag/tools can hide behind the seats. I remove the styrofoam liner for extra room of clothes I might pack or less valuable items.

 

[Free2Speed]

I typically don't bring them with me but have started to mainly for track day emergencies.

I found the Sport tires adequate - I collected my car during the rainy season in California so they made sense. However, I quickly destroyed the front tires. I switched to Michelin 4s not really by choice - I wanted Yoko Advan N601 - but they only had 3 - so the 4s had similar wear ratings. BAD IDEA - those tires just can't cope with what this car can do. More specifically they trigger the abs easily during hard braking. The cars amazing tc still lets the car turn in well but again the front are getting destroyed even more now.

If you are not tracking any of the tires above would be fine. However, the Bridgstone Race or Cup2's would be excellent if I were to guess. Personally, I am a little sick and tired (no pun intended) of Cup2's price and wear characteristics on my other cars and would go with another ultra high performance tire for track.

GT3RS is a little beyond what I expected! I think the STO needs wider front tires. The RS's wide tires may have something to do with all that downforce???

 

[Free2Speed]

I guess I probably got 4 track days out of the fronts when the right front right edge went to cords. Sonoma Raceway and Thunderhill majority of days - not terribly hot. Cup 2's are great - I've just used them a lot and am looking to alternatives. As far as the feel I just can't comment - hard to tell unless it's back to back. It felt the same except 4s's had clearly less grip than the Bridgestone Sport. As far as I can tell there is good tire selection for the STO. It may vary from month to month supply levels.

That color combo and rims look cool. Curious about the tire specs. Nice and meaty looking.
