Well the impreza is going very soon, and driving home last night I realised I'm going to miss a few things

* The Engine Noise Sounds amazing
* The size of the car - Really nimble
* The crazy short gearing

But I'll be glad to see the back of it because of
* The lack of performance
* The understeer
* Depreciation/Costs
* The crazy short gearing

I did consider keeping the car as a runnabout, but the insurance was just silly... Anyway roll-on next week, when I get double the power, better handling and flame spitting

...and another 300kg!

 

Not too worried about the 300kgs as I will have another 300bhp extra

 

oh oh

Someone else has bought a Datsun truck

 

What does it corner like (serious question)? I must admit, I did think the scoob (~1250kg) really is the limit of what I want to heave around corners. Do you notice the extra 300 kg or not? The bookatrack website says a Skyline is like a Caterham but much bigger

 

carl
they corner fine mate
are you going to the top speed challenge near ipswich this month?
if so, i will take you out in mine (if i still have it) and show you EXACTLY why people move up to skylines

 

I wasn't going to, but when is it? Weekday or weekend? Is it at Bentwaters?

 

hi carl
i think i may only be going to spectate (not into track stuff much) although i could be persuaded.
its about 1 mile from bentwaters i think. i will get all the details tommorrow and post 'em here mate.

sorry for the thread hijacking jon


edited to say its on a sunday, which is good news for me anyway.
