renault 5 gt turbo

[novaexplod]

i was in town the other day n me sees a grey renault 5 gt turbo with dump valve n as it was comin towards to me at bout 60mph every time he went up a gear the dump valve kicked in but the car would sway to the right everytime :? y??

thats torch stear for you, minis suffer from it bad coz 1 drive shaft is shorter than the other

[Paush]

Bloody ell only pulled to the right? :?

A second gear sprint in my mota spends 40% of time pulling to the left, 40% pulling to the right and the remaining 20% is pure traction :lol:

And before anyone asks what mota it is, just read the description under my picture to the left and that should clear things up.
