    I'm putting it down to the tires being new, like a few miles old. The back end has always been a bit lively, I should put some ballast in the boot but seems backwards adding weight to a track car.

    It is hard to make an inboard shoot look as quick as it feels.

    Is your steering wheel in need of straightening? There's quite a lot of yellow in the interior; why the taxi no smoking sticker?

    Hobbit if you could, would you want a setup where that exact same drive meant never having to moved your hands from the 10 to 2 position?

    So many questions.

    The wheel is slightly to the left iirc.

    I like yellow.

    No smoking sticker was on the dash from the car I got the dash from, seemed ironic considering how easy it smokes its tires.

    Less steering input would be nice. Could do with a quick rack.

    Hobbit you need to change the setting on the Gopro so it will not white out so much.
    Its in exposure setting, set it to spt this is a lot better for filming in the car looking out

    It's one of the few instructions booklets which is well worth reading.

    Do you have a spare wheel in the back? if not then its a nice weight gain for the rear that actually serves a useful purpose so you don't have to feel so bad about adding it.
