Blimey, didnt think it was that tail happy!!!
Just slipoing the clutch out of a T junction i scrabbled to get grip, luckily just before the copper came the other way! :eek:
Also, just powering mid range through the gear change gave a good wobble of torque...
I was just waiting for a nice car park to go "hey you! Over here, come try me out!" and I ont think I woulda bothered going back into work after my lunch break!!!
Very good fun indeed :D
:D :D He he, I did tell you to go easy in the wet .
( @ 1st) :D

ok.... erm....
The power surged through the wheels, the tarmac could not cope with the torque and let go of my tyres
better? :D

I believe the most common phrase by the RWD crew should be
" I felt the back end squirming around then before I knew it, I was all crossed up!"

my best yet is a 540 (round one and a half times) in the dry, though I did cheat as I had a nail in my rear tyre
The Old S13 used to do it in 4th in the wet :eek:
.....and it had an LSD
A real seat stainer if you didnt expect it :D

as soon as it got that fast he sold the s13, it shit him up too much, he needed something slower, something boring, something an infant could control...so what did he buy?..........

i believe the phrase used when selling an s13 to buy an s14 is "Upgrading" ;) :D
Advice:
Dont buy one of these just before winter........like i did :D
Driving it home, overtake on a corner.......oops, first time i have gone past someone sideways, now try and do it ono purpose! great fun........:D
LOL
Starions are similar, unless you left foot brake which sorts them out. But they can be bloody lethal, esp if diesel is on the road
Love the feeling if you eccelerate hard in the wet and the back end squirms - does it every time on the hill away from my work - just over a mini roundabout. But first time exiting a roundabout in the wet almost made me mess my pants!:o
