Well done P4Paco. :D Surely that's what it's all about. People get too hung up on the details, "You're doing it wrong, you should do it like this". It's all about enjoying yourself at the end of the day. Well done my friend. Colaboy.

My first sort of "Boy Racer" car when I got my first decent job, was a Carlton 3000 GSI, 3 litre 24 valve. It was an ex police car. I drove it like a maniac and suprise, suprise, it absolutely ate petrol. I had to get rid of it in the end. Nice while it lasted though. Colaboy.

Very nice. It's a little bit low for my tastes but I like the rest of it. My first Escort Cosworth had the Ford Motorsport tiger stripes. God I loved that car. I rolled it over and it never felt right after that. I think the chasis was twisted. :cry: Colaboy.

A couple of things learnt from fifteen years of rallying. Cadence braking and heel/ toe gear changes are definately your friend. If you practice it and perfect it it will become second nature.

I had an RS Turbo that was in mint condition. I had a blow out and ended up through a wall. It was all fixed and looked as good as new, but I couldn't trust it any more. I sold it and bought an Astra 16v GTI which was the worst car I have ever owned. Colaboy.
