I couldnt belive how little understeer it gets..

We deliberatley went onto a private wide roundabout at a speed that would make me just look out of the drivers window in my car and dream about going in the direction that the wheel is pointing.

Anyway.. Couldn't believe how much difference a LSD at the front makes.. its one of those things you read about but need to experience 1st hand even 2nd hand as I wasnt driving..

Just cant wait to see what it does in the rain..
