    So VR-4's are 4wd...lets add dirt *NOT* Kieran safe

    Got home early, decided to have some fun ASC really sucks on dirt though, especially when all 4 wheels are spinning. I may have to disable that to do full slides around the house.

    I also found the best launches on dirt come from being at 2500rpm in 2nd gear

    Nah, this is fine, that looks like fun - However, I do presume you washed the car afterwards, right?!

    Of course not. In fact it's still out there in the mud, I couldn't be bothered driving it back around. It will be fine, I'm hoping it is wet tomorrow so most of the mud comes off when driving.

    You know I haven't hand washed a car since the end of 2005 The white Legnum has gone through a car wash once so far, about 4000km ago, and it isn't going to see one any time soon!

    It is actually quite hard to get mud up onto the car, it tends to just stick on the wheels You can see where I've been making ruts in the last few photo's, but for some reason the sides of the car aren't that dirty. Underneath it is covered in dirt though

    Candee, they do look nice, and it looks like they will fit over Brembo's too

    You just gotta know how to do it right Although I can still do a lot better than that on the pic below... so much "better" that you won't probably be able to tell what color it is...

    TRY HARDER!!!
