Default 4 x spacesaver wheel drive

Anyone driven on 4 spacesavers before?

Always reckoned it would be great fun.

That could be fun in the wet chap, I'd give it a go but couldn't fit the fronts over my brakes.

I think it was Pete Croney who did this around Knockhill many, many years ago!

There was a video from someone in the USA who drove his 2.5 N/A with 4 space savers on, his own version of Gymkhana.. and it was awesome
