Hmmmm think ive seen one of these in stockport, anyones on here? Tony

We shall have to point out about these racing/rally drivers ;) These guys (and gals) are in a driving seat by the age of 5 in most cases (mainly go carts) so they start young (for racing) it does give them experience but a different type, it still took Button, Schumacher etc years to become...

Joe, Off topic, u going to be at the NW meet in Rochdale on sat? Tony:D

Cheers Joe ;):D I am trying to be very tactile in my approach ;) Tony:D

Aaron, Michael Schumacher could probably get in your car and on the first lap put a good 10 secs between you and him ;) Adiclio, i know what your getting at, but wet car parks are not quite the same as wet roads, the handling of a car isnt just about putting the car into a slide, its about...

Cheers Matt! :D I just want more input though so keep on posting your opinions peeps! Tony:D

Matt, you could try some groved discs? these will clear the water better than standard discs but it could also be down to the combination of pads/discs that cause the problems (dont suffer as ive got a 2 piece groved disc set on me car ;)) Tony

Ah, doing 180mph and not being afraid, well ive done 167mph in my car and i was sh***ing it :o. Fear is there for a reason, thats why alot of younger drivers think that they are very good and they are not :( I shall define fear before i go on just to make sure that people dont think its about...

Have to agree with 172cup here (havnt done it in the scoob but ive scared meself a few times :o) I did it at the beginning of this year, a few things caused it, me being tired (was 5am and on my way home from work) it was slightly damp (wet road) i was driving an astra van and an animal ran...

I think people will be saying that Avon ZZ1s are a good tyre next lol! Possably one of the scariest you can ever fit to an Impreza (especially in the wet!) The new goodyear eagal F1s are meant to be way ahead of the tyres that they replaced, even nearly as good as Bridgestone SO2 PPs...

Good point Laurence, But speeding in town isnt just the problem, its the fact that these cars wernt aimed at young drivers IMHO but at a more experienced driver who wants the thrills of a stripped out car and the features that go with it (mainly for track days). Your correct about assessing...

It seems a bit negative but im just wondering what Renault were thinking of when they produced this car and put it in a price range that many an inexperienced driver could afford :( I see that some of the people on here have only a few years no claims (including some cup owners) and are 21 or...

You could try the Goodyear eagles GD3 tyres which can be picked up quite cheaply or Toyos T1s which also can be picked up for a lowish price, both are quite highly rated as good performance tyres. Tony

I hope that you cut and pasted that ;) Tony

Well the aint the quickest of cars are they? (8v 115bhp);) Tony
