*Apparently.
Thought an MX5 didn't have enough power to break traction?
It doesn't. Nor does a Micra, but if you're brutal enough with the launch it will still spin it's wheels! That's all this is really, dumping the clutch from a standstill - easy. The fishtailing part is harder, especially in an mx5 where there isn't enough power once you get up to a certain road speed to keep the wheels spinning fast enough.
Understand me now dude?
No mate, I don't understand. In the above paragraph (with the patronising smart arse ending) you say that an MX5 and a Micra don't have the power to break traction, but that dumping the clutch will make it break traction...
Do you understand you?
