if you want to improve your skills Dave,it's all about seat time...forget moddin your car(it's fine as it is) as it won't make you a better drifter...

Bit like playing guitar really.... not everyone can just pick one up and become Yngwie Malmsteen....Practice makes perfect laugh


I always remember what I was told when I did my rally day at Phil Price rallyschool in the MkII Escorts......

To be fully in cntrol, the car has to be out of control

I got pretty good at driting the things end of the day...and they kept makin it harder by wetting the track, and putting bald road tyres on the back. Oh so much fun raftl raftl


Ill have to come see you have a go when uni finishes happy

The mods i want to do are just personal really. as its a 'fast road' car at the same time i want brakes that dont scare the proverbial out of me. Other stuff is just to make myself more comfortable really. I know having the best car wont make you any better although some seem to think otherwise. If anything this car is too much to start with.


I HATE cars.

haha, nice one tone. I left the one with my face in cause i look in a right mood.

I got some 17's. Theyre luminous orange and look stupid in a good way. Im gonna paint them but not entirely sure which colour. Ill post a picture some time anyway.

Wheels have definately helped the ground clearance situation anyway. I can even get my car up the drive too. Might buy a few sets of 17's instead of using standards cause they look better and give a better ride hieght.

I did go the rock for a bit but it was like 8ish. Spoke to a few people then got off, couldnt be bothered waiting around.

Had an 'interesting' incident with an Evo on the way home though, think it was Stuy's old car.
