Hi,

I'm finaly making the move to tubo land this friday. Cant wait. I would apriciate any advice on how to adjust to the car, and do's & donts etc.

I know about letting the car warm up & cool down. What else is there? Any handling/power traits I should watch for? I could boot my sport almost all the time, but I think a tubo could bite me back he he.

Thanks

Don't drive like a **** and it won't bite. Learn the car, before it teaches you

Don't spend all your time on New Year's Eve lunchtimes driving round the McDonald's car park either...........it lowers the tone of the car....
