After my little spin, I've found that I've become very conservative when I approach corners. It's all psychological - I know the back end will stick in the dry when you put the power down, but there's this nagging doubt.

So - do I get over it, be a man and drive it like I stole it, or continue to drive miss daisy?

To try and answer this question, I started looking for grippier tyres - and as most things do when your bored at lunch time, one search leads to another and I found this:

After market traction control. Who'd a thunk it?

Anyway - it appears to be a straight forward install and setup, and allows you to tailor the amount of slip permissible. It's not cheap - £535, plus the cost of some ABS wheel sensors as it appears to be able to make use of them... But like the dual servo, it could make a big contribution to the feel of the car, and its road holding.

Soooo - driver aids. Only for big girls blouses?
