SLO-030 Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 not on some of the roads this run takes you on. I did a test run with Luc a week or 2 ago in the dry, and i can say that even then, 1 bit of inattention could see you over the edge or in the trees.

toms.AE71 Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 AHHH thats just more of a competition skill and car control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLO-030 Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Lets see the car control when the cars 4 wheel sliding towards the outside of a turn towards a drop. Seriously, there's a time and place for wet road sliding, yes i enjoy it but wet hilly roads at the dead of night is not the time nor place.

Tally Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 exactly, the other day I went up through this set of twisties I found and it was wild but as soon as it started raining it started to get scary. I nearly understeered off the side of the hill. Average speed 80kph lol through tight twisties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed this can happen to anyone, i myself had a bit of understeer before i changed a few things with my car. 4 wheel slide towards a rail luckily it was a controlled side in the dry i think we were going too fast :) going back over 12 months ago. Alot has to be said for decent tyres :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Average speed 80kph lol through tight twisties. Yeah this happened to me the other day. Except I have pretty much no front struts and it was a rather uneven curly road so I was about to die. :D Don't you love those roads where the corner is just on the other side of a crest so you don't see it coming? Keeps ya on your toes :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harden up princess, I was outside in 4 degree weather last night til 2 am working on mine. Anyway this is not a competition. Luc, do we want to try for this Friday??
