Rick Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 my engines finally loosened up enough now to get the wheels spipnning properly. iv felt the backend going when accelerating on long bends. only problem is i aint got the bottle and come off the gas talk me through it
Trevmk3 Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 and make sure it isnt to busy when your doing it
Stu_B Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 Don't do it near anything you can hit! Find a nice big empty space & get used to how it reacts to throttle & steering changes! It only takes a second to lose control & destroy all your hard work
Trevmk3 Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 try to be smooth on the loud pedal and the steering and not panick and snatch at it as that could make you spin out the opposite way to which your going
razersedge Posted May 21, 2008 Report Posted May 21, 2008 the way i learned back in the day was going round roundabouts silly o'clock in the morning and accelerating slowly till it would start to go and at least that way it should be nice slow adjustments on opposite lock and just remember the clutch brings it back if it goes to far or for the first couple of times use a car park and just drive in a circle but trust me when the back goes at a ton doesn't matter how use to it you are you still crap yourself it's just after it's happened because you done it on instinct
Rick Posted May 21, 2008 Author Report Posted May 21, 2008 think il leave it and only do it for grass and a wet car park
X-pack-Glyn Posted May 25, 2008 Report Posted May 25, 2008 thats the worst thing you can do, come off the gas totally and the back end can snap away as well as come back...its been the death of many capri...
