Latest in car vid

Post by Atomrally »

Latest rallysprint video of my FTO powered Mirage. Yes I've gotta get a close ratio gear set.
Angled the camera to get in more of the steering wheel, note its a 2.2 turn EVO quick steering rack.
56K unfriendly.

Yep still a front skidder.
And yes, all those rocks give the underside hell. It's got all sort of protection under there.

hmmm, the session only goes around 2 mins
How do you warm up your car before it?
Is there a warm up session, or you need to do some circles in the car park to get the engine and g/box oil temps up?

Yeah it's only a 3 minute sprint so I have to go for a short drive up the road before my run.

Racing in a VL is like being in the Special Olympics, coz even if you win, you're still a <u>RETARD</u>
