ting ting ting boooooooooooooom - 600hp Scoobs are really reliable aren't they?

Thing is with the Ultima, it's mid engined and rwd, which is lethal - 4wd is sooo much better ......apparently

I think he did a good take off, but the brake ballance was all wrong for the big stop...

I'd have one though...
