maddox710 Posted November 2, 2013 Author Posted November 2, 2013 Today was the first slice of track action the little glanza seen. Set of at 7:30 this morning for Curborough sprint track with a couple of friend and their kit cars. To be honest was pleased with how it held up of the damp track and, putting the power down was pretty hard, but once the other cars had made a dry patch it as fairly easy to chuck it into the corners. Learnt a fair bit about what's needed to improve the handling today and top of the list is rear anti roll bar and lsd gearbox Have got loads of videos of the v going up load later on

Didn't get chance to have a play though Gutted dude, not a bad little track for. A starter. We are on about hiring the track out in the summer as its fairly cheap, if we get 10 people works out about the same as a full tank of fuel each
