if you can't pull away without wheel spinning you need to learn some right foot control,

RE: pure power - CJ_Derv - 19-11-2012

You mean 40Psi is too much?!?
RE: pure power - Curt - 19-11-2012
Yeah, the thread title is somewhat misleading...
RE: pure power - Rippthrough - 19-11-2012
Hah, my 1.4 span all the way through 3rd last week.
Okay, it was on wet gravel. Uphill. With frost. And I dropped the clutch hard. And the Yoko's have gone like plastic in the cold.
But, POWWWAHHH!
RE: pure power - Niall - 19-11-2012

HAHA Ive always loved them to be fair, a lot of people hate them but when running my brembos they still manage to stop fairly good considering tread pattern.
ive also found them great fun in the snow haha
Can also tell mine are low with the aweful aquaplaning on M66 near me over the weekend

it was a constant problem in mine. one of the reasons i had to change to the estate. The extra weight over the rear wheels gives more grip for fast starts!

As Joe said...If you can't pull away without wheel spinning either stick decent (not part-worn!) tyres on or learn how to control the car properly. I've got a very heavy right foot (Hence putting my con rod through the side of my block!) but even I can do a quick getaway with little or no spin...
And as for 4th gear wheelspins without the clutch I had a Corsa Sport 1.6 that did that quite well!
As you can tell I am back peoples...Still minus a Pug though *SOBS*
RE: pure power - CJ_Derv - 21-11-2012
Yayyyy your backkkk

Genuinely not sure if you're joking or not...
How much kinda power are we talking here?
RE: pure power - Midnightclub - 21-11-2012
Well they're 100bhp IIRC......
RE: pure power - 4WayDiablo - 21-11-2012
And the only way you would manage that in a cross is on bold tyres uphill in the piss pouring rain beating the hell out of the clutch lol
