    Talking Finally - DONE SQUEAL!!!

    After owning my Legnum for nearly 3 weeks, I have finally managed to get 2 (Yep 2 lights on the AYC ). Now this is old hat for most of you guys, but this is my first 4wd...
    Quite surprised how much I had to push her just to get the 2 lights up.

    Next challenge, 3 Lights...

    so imagine how much theres left to push.....its onto three bars then its window down to listen to tyre squeal to judge your next grip level up!

    With decent tyres the grip goes well beyond three bars...
    Still here somewhere........

    Get it on track Andy. You'll soon get the 3 lights on & plenty of tyre squeal
    The mighty Leedsnum has gone but the Airtrek mods will soon fill this space

    very decent tyres. Check out the Falken 452's if your buying four. Price is very competetive to what is a brilliant all round tyre.

    Slow in, fast out will give you more lights than fast in and try to hold it.

    Hoof it out of a junction you will go a touch sideways and guaranteed three lights if you properly boot it!

    My advice would be to remember - Your much more likely to bottle it before the VR4 seriously lets go, Dont panic and flinch, just try and go with it. Gently Gently Catchy Monkey

    Indeedy!

    Getting on the power early out of a hairpin will light up your AYC like a Christmas tree.
    Believed to be the only Palma Red / Thurston Grey tiptronic Legnum VR-4 driven by me.

    ...before it went to deepest Englandshire.
