Oh My!!

Post by P1 Dave » Sat Dec 21, 2013 7:57 pm

Just taken the RS out for a short drive after an afternoon of rain, I am still running it in and have got to the 7k revs stage. Even with this limit oh how much fun the RS is, without much effort at all the rear end was coming around really nicely and very easy to understand what is going on. I know the B8 has its doubters, but I have to ask if they have driven one in those conditions as it was great fun.... Much more fun in fact than I was expecting especially after the threads on here at the moment

I came out of a round a bout the other night in the wet at a bit of a silly speed and could feel the back end go and then suddenly felt the diff come in and save me. Scared the crap out of me but it was bloody fun.
