what is it about these cars?

i get such a buzz from it...like coming back from the Gym.

this evening i decided to push on a little harder. bloody hell. managed to catch the drift once and spun out once otherwise it was really good fun. i enjoyed it (hands are shaking though )

tried to some 0-60 tests and the best i got was 5.4 seconds. definetly scope for improvement

i found a really good empty car-park to practice catching oversteer. there is cctv though although im sure the security guard had fun pissing himself laughing.

one thing i learnt is i need some rear tyres el 'beast izt flying all over ze shop

other than that, its a 50:50 mix of having fun and being terrified, especially when the thing is seemingly drifting from side to side

i need more experience and have started saving for my 1stlotus day!

until then im having fun, scaring myself shitless

i cannot honestly see myself selling it. every time i get in, i think

im posting some more pictures tomorrow for you all

i think ill try and go to sleep now...that'll be a mission

and just to think, i was going to get pi55ed instead this evening

Bonce
