- oh, and another thing - as your drift (with some reverse lock) finds a line, you'll feel the time for more or less gas to bring it in and through - these are thoughts and advice best practiced in your car - at a track or large skidpad, where mistakes teach you rather than burn you.

These cars are great handlers, but they have a significant disadvantage going in - weight. Skillful learning makes up for some but not all - and it's so worth it - visit a driverschool soon - not a penny wasted.
