2nd gear doesnt cut it, and neither does driving on shit rear tires.
Man I hate being a beginner hahaha I wonder when it will end? I have tried to drift some turbo cars and I just don't really like it. For me the single cam KA is so much fun. But then again, I don't like needing a freaking mile to get up to a good speed

Good luck with the project!

oh no i wasnt calling you a beginner

but one day you will either be like man, you know what.. you realized you exceed your car. or you will get a corolla. ka can be fun, but to be competitive you need more, sorry i guess i answered wrong. turbo cars are a little weird at first, totally different then having constant power.

thanks dude

No worries, I was just kidding anyway. I am not so much about competition, more about fun. But when competition comes, if I win, I do make it a point to let them know what they got beat by. I don't like to brag too much but it does feel good to win, especially against a car that has twice as much power as mine. The bad part about a turbo car for me is that I can't floor it once I see my line. But then again, with the extra power it is easier to correct my line instead of having to get it perfect everytime and rely on momentum.

BTW: Sorry for the thread jack. Let us know how the engine works out.
