A few pics from Anglesey on saturday.

A few pics of the big old X at Anglesey, we seem to have it working a treat and it was flying. According to the drift lads who were timing I was the fastest out on track, so its all good so far.

It was a completely different driving style needed than the CSL and rwd in general, but I finally adapted towards the end of the day.

The reason I have kept it was it was going to be far too much hassle putting back to standard. So I am going to use it and if I do decide to sell I will sell as is.

I am actually beginning to like and understand it. Just need to alter my geo now to a more aggressive set-up.

See you on track soon guys.

Thanks Shim,

Its weird to get your head round the way you drive them.
Better in some corners than CSL, but worse in others.

Different tool doing the same job. Mid corner you can floor it and it just grips through, strange as in CSL you would still be modulating throttle. As I say strange to get head round at first. Best way to drive it is with foot to floor as much as possible.

I was watching the Scoobies and Evos today at the Sprint and they didn't seem to do that very well and were producing far too much understeer,

Yeh they can and do understeer a bit, I was driving round some on track who were understeering like bitches, but I was gripping. I think if you have a slight understanding of driving you can get the best out of them.

Problem with the evos is that they make a shit driver seem ok, but when they need to step up a gear they cant. Most think they are the best driver in the world because the evo hides their inadequacies behind the wheel.

If you keep it smooth and neat they are fine, get a bit out of shape and its understeer city. But can still be quite quick.


A few sprint records are held by evos, so with the right driver they can be pretty good.
