 steve was just upset you didnt like his hair
Car is amazing and looks like it handles alright too. As proven in that vid on weekend racer where you fly past chasing an elise round the bends
Shame we didnt get any footage of you chasing the genetta race car down the main straight
Drives supercharged Tec with torque

if it hadnt have spun up just before i changed to 5th, id have had it as it couldnt accelerate as quick as the corsa.
just need to make it handle better if possible. or atleast get more confident. as expected, straights are no problems.

i think it was during the wheels stuck on moment you must have been over?
people hate 1/4 miles so ive been used to strange comments over the years. atleast now i can say it can succesfully navigate corners as well. shame your puma couldnt make it steve really. i was going to pester you for a passenger lap. nice hair though.

i had a feeling last week with the knackered clutch i wouldnt have been making it either.
in a way, its given me things to think about and see if we can make some changes. i didnt even get it close to losing it on corners, it seemed to grip a hell of a lot better than i expected. i think the brakes is something i need to address. or perhaps the pads were not up to it.
next time steve, hopefully we can have some battles.
