Primus is a nice place but I feel I really can't progress much further on that course. It's almost Gymkhana. If we could find a venue that is all 2nd and 3rd gear, that would be killer. The more advanced drivers I am sure could still cope with even a KA as long as speeds are kept up, but 250-300hp is prolly needed to really drift a course like that.

BTW in case anyone thinks I have huge power, I'm prolly making like 170 rwhp in a 3100lb car.

PS I think I did good this weekend, and wish I had a better setup / more power, but I was still definitely humbled by the course and watching the pros.
I can hit 3rd gear on primus. Keep the car off of the grass, and you will, too!
