I want to be taught how to seriously handle the car in the rain!Do you guys think this is stupid? I am quite happy putting my car on Barbagello race track when it\'s fine (I am in a street racing car club and we hire out the track once a month) but I admit I am scared in the rain, I am hoping to overcome the fear with some proper training. Am I likely to get this at the drive day?CheersAlisonHi Alison,I see you are in Perth. I have the FPV drive day booked for the 28th July. Is yours booked yet?The drive day is at AHG and from what I hear they will teach you a few skills. Also AHG do alot of driver training courses you can sign up with and some insuracne mobs offer discounts when you have completed some.CheersAdrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might do the courses once I have money again, after all, I don't think you can ever stop learning new tricks!! Yes, I will be there on 28th July.See you there!Alison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(he has it in bits at the moment, not sure why, it wasn't broken! lol)How did you know, do you attend the No Limits events? It's annoying, I have plenty of time to attend and no money normally I have no time and plenty of money!CheersAlison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the F6 it would just keep spinning the wheels.I also found the car much more front heavy, but the FG's suspension seems to make up for the extra weight.All in all I had a good day, but did miss the power of the F6. I also lost 5 seconds in the motorkhana that cost me a win, against a F6 driver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
