LION ETR Member 6 Member For: 15y 9m 26d Posted 31/03/09 09:04 AM Share Posted 31/03/09 09:04 AM no dirty pants for LIONETR, hardly a challage but was surprised how far it spun for, turning 275 tyres for that length was not expected but accecpted . Not happy about letting big bro beat me. At the age of 17 I had a Centura that was off its nut which would tear the Falcon apart frequently sideways 3rd gear at 170km not to mention Te cortina, falcon, and 550 HP XW that would turn tyres at 100 Km ,so not scared of high speed sideways action.

The dirty undies would belong to the hapless shmuck in the next lane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they are near as goodas my Yoko Advans they replaced.The guy on the bike in front of me just before I was about to warm the tyres would havenot to mention a huge bruised ass and ego.Sitting there watching him, seen him get near verticle and said to myself his gone.that's the differance between a good rider and a average rider, the good riderwould have lightly tapped the rear brake to bring it down.it was a slow flip (Meaning it didn't lift instantly) and would have been able to avoid it if he could ride.That guy needs to learn more clutch and brake control.

01txr Member 861 Member For: 17y 10m 12d Gender: Male Location: QLD Posted 01/04/09 04:30 AM Share Posted 01/04/09 04:30 AM Why not have some fun when you have been left at the start line.Would much prefer to throw a car around at low speeds at the begining of the track thanto try and do it at well over 100kph towards the end of the track.The last time I went out, I had the standard cooler on mine and the humidity was like 90%Launch and did a nice snake away from the line, the monaro in the right lane got out to near2 lengths on me, got traction then caught him and passed him.Orsm feeling snaking off the line just gets a little more scary when your car movesaround on you at high speeds.I was the person who taught my little Brother (Lion Etr) how to drift cars at over 160kphIn some tuff cars I had handed down to him.Was a bit scary seeing him behind the wheel the first couple of times I must admit.
