Talking Dry roads!

Finally some dry roads to have some fun with!

When I bought my car the garage had been kind enough to replace the front Continental Contisport's with some no-name tyres. To be fair they were low on tread... Anyway they aren't exactly confidence inspiring in the wet, so I've been fairly sensible recently on the wet roads.

But now it's dry... f*** me does this car handle!! With the traction control turned on it's very hard to make the front end wash out in a corner, and with it off it's not much easier. I went into a roundabout I often go around in 2nd gear (based on a wet road) and had to change up to 3rd to avoid bouncing off the limiter! What can I say, big grin factor

I really cannot wait for some GSD3's and 17's, it's going to be like glue!

Alfa 147 - it's a bit good

My name is Simon
