    FWD is sooo boring.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    Maybe compact FWD cars can outrun being boring/slow, but that one at least can't outrun being ugly.

    yes you must Clutch , get the porkka ready for next year mate and you only need a 2s lic for regularity. Its the most daunting racetrack with all the concrete but Im counting down the days till next year

    I must say he is the better driver than the second place car in the first vid. Other driver was definetly not smooth.

    dunno if i'll take the 911! can't afford to replace it
    might just strip a mini out and learn in that on the cheap (they raced mini's there after all)

    The other driver is actually a hell of a steerer,his first time racing at the mountain, Scott Hunter was on his 4th trip there, his car was tankslapping him all over the top, he hadnt raced competively for 3 yrs, he was running 3 yr old tyres and a car that has no real development on the suspension and his save @ the 9min mark is very impressive. Looks can be very decieving, I have seen him drive other peoples race cars at our local track and be quicker than them straight out the box In comparison his car would have cost him less than Hunters engine/gearbox/ diff setup

    Dont get me wrong Scott Hunter is a very good steerer but he has developed that car to a unbelievable level and gets every last tenth out of it
