Default 4wd + lots of rain + track day = ...

... overtaking much more expensive cars in he scoob today! Tally of cars that I was faster than (with my *very* limited skill):

1 x 2009 M3
1 x 2010 Lotus Evora
1 x 2008? Boxster
1 x older porsche turbo
1 x Noble M12
3 x Civic type Rs
Lots of saxos, BMW3 series etc

There was so much standing water that every time the powerful rear wheel cars so much as touched the accelerator the back stepped out.

Long live the scoob!

I've found that to be a problem in my M3 today on my way back from Wales so I'll be putting it away soon and using my scoob instead

Ditto with the M3. Dreading the bloody snow!

Now realise how truly fantastic the AWD is in adverse conditions .

Mine will be away long before that! I have a few parts to fit to my STI and it'll be ready for the winter I'm going to love this winter
