    Lol I tried that one as well but found out that you can actually drive around circuits on 3 wheels wondering why the feck there is so much understeer, I'll try uploading the video as its quite amusing seeing a nova going around a mahosive corner with stationary wheels

    Were those the AVO's? It was amusing seeing the Nova cocking it's leg like a puppy on every corner though

    Gareth, keep motivated we've all been there and getting bored is actually part of the fun... once it's finished
