SO chuffed with its first outing on thursday.


Had two slight issues, I need a new drivers door latch as it kept swinging open on hard left handers and it turns out the latch itself is worn, and the dash kept freezing which was a pain as it meant no RPM or MPH to judge what speeds I was going into bends at which wasnt ideal on a first outing.


Over the moon with how it handles though, really doesnt roll much at all, corners so flat and its so damn responsive to input from the steering, the combination of the Nitrons and the Roll Centre correction kit really have made it a whole level above how it drove on the old blue shell with the previous setup.


Been one of the longest reshells in history, literally been off the road for about 3 bloody years as I just havent had the time, but really pleased to finally have it out and about again :)


Straight line pace was slower than most things there (its only 173bhp), but other than beanies mental spec mk1 nothing actually got past me all day and I was happily driving around the outside of stuff on bends as exotic as an Intergrale Evo etc


About time I had a car that actually suits my username, lol.
