Thats too funny! We were talking about that game yesterday too! You know, the one with the cars that are this small and the turbos. Did anyone ever upgrade anything but the turbos?

 

[odyss3y]

was this from the group of cars going north on skyline that i (the lone black WRX at speed) passed going south?

sucks to see someone crash their ride....

The theory of "If they can turn I can too" doesn't apply if THEY = Miata and I = Protege.

I am sure that if I were following a Protege then that theory would work quite well.

Also, keep in mind that the Miata KEEPS TURNING as opposed to REFUSES TO TURN, in a deep hairpin for example.

Put a nice big rear swaybar on the protege and give it some gas to take care of that problem...

 

[Natey]

I'm STILL understeering, even with the 21.5mm swaybar. I'm gonna set that thing as STIFF as I can go, then see if I can get the P5 to swap ends. (wrc)(silverp5) (drive)

Perhaps the solution is to improve the driver then, not the car.

Speaking of which, I was just reading my new Autoweek, and Alex Zanardi(living legend) just took 7th place in a European Touring Car Champ. series race. He's thinking about competing in the British TCC for a full season.(rockon)

Not bad for a guy with NO LEGS.

I actually agree that the Protege can get some oversteer. With most of the roads around here, you don't want to be trying that though. I never had a swaybar so I wouldn't know (other than stock) but I know what a combination of worn tires + 2 x 12 inch subs in a sealed box did. Oversteer. Ironically, when I didn't have the subs and I had new tires, I flipped...

Yes. The Crazy Chicken left and me and Nate decided to go up Page Mill again. And then we met that group of cars and went down Page Mill again...

Yikes... guys post quick. Nice pictures you got of me. Toed the car to get an estimate today and got all inssurance stuff worked out. Now i just got to wait.

The car on its side really makes it look worse than what really happen. I didn't hit the side of the hill all that hard.. but the car was up on the slope and it just tipped over =T

I look back at it and i want to slap myself , cuz i could have done this or that blah blah... but oh well... live and learn. I'm not even all that upset with my car being trashed, i'm more upset that i didn't make that turn... err because of that "deer" i got a deer story now

I'll be back to beat on Page Mill.... revenge

 

[MrFoggy]

Damn Deer!
