it might not have a lot of torque but if you keep it in the power range you shouldn't have a problem. why would you be between 2k and 5k revs anyway if you want to go quick? maybe you need a diesel?
that car has full suspension change and an lsd the guy was trying to convince me that it would handle better than mine but mine completly standard. he has spent a fortune on it. does look quick though but a clio with the same mods would beat it round a track all day
don't know figures but my brother had a standard jcw not the gp and that was faster than my 172 and handled far better and that isn't as powerful as the gp and doesn't have all the suspension mods of the gp
i think people rely too much on electronics to help them drive rather than using their inititive and understanding what the car is doing. i suppose its just down to what you are used to.
you are lucky enough to have had traction control i've never had it. i think you just need to know when to put your foot down ie not foot to the floor on a wet roundabout even though it is fun lol
knocking from suspension when you floor it in first don't know if its common but mine does it. just general things like the vin plates all match and all the paper work is there. make sure you get to drive it and make sure it doesn't over heat or chuck out smoke. thats all i can think off...
it was good to see people today and it was a good turn out. i'll try to get to more meets in future. if any of my pics are any good i'll upload them later :)
i had a 15inch vibe space in which sounded good inside the car but outside all you could hear was the panels rattling. i'd get a twelve inch and sound deaden the car or it'll just sound s**t
my best and worst was my zx but the clio comes a very close second i like these coz i choose them my other two my ex helped me pick and i hated them both
