Nah,,, it`s just bulk fun :-) It`s really easy to drive, i have given all my friends & my dad heaps of drives... my dad is about 78 years old & he loves it :-) can`t get him out of the thing he just wants to keep driving, won`t pull in & let anyone else have a go till it`s run out of fuel,,, so we only let him have a few litres in the tank now :-)

we win the dirt events (usually) against all the WRX`s & all the EVO`s & GT$4`s & Famillia`s etc... they got nothing :-)

the bitumen events we have just started running so we`re just getting used to the slicks & the wings, much faster on the black stuff but the grip level is just truely amazing,,, just check-out the speed we`re doing on the dirt,,, & that`s only 3rd & 4th gear,,, the camera does not do this thing justice

every school kid in the world should have one of these to play with,,, the world would be a far safer place

thats the first thing i noticed, i was postin when i noticed your post.

it seems an odd place to put the shifter (in my eyes i dont know anything).

it just seems odd to reach over the wheel for it.

not reaching over the wheel for it at all,,, it`s right beside the wheel,
it`s way easier & MUCH quicker than any shifter i`ve ever used
maybe the camera angle doesn`t do it justice in this instance?
ah well,,, ya can`t please everyone hey? ;-) ;-) :-)
