Default Day out at Woodbridge

Hi everyone.

Went to Woodbridge airfield today to meet up with Matt in his 5exi. Had a fantastic day there. Car was running low boost (about 7psi) but still managed on the straights to keep with the vx220 turbo's.

Matt's driving through the bents pushed the car to the limit (even spun without drama). And all this on the original mk1 suspension.

Quite surprised. No lift off jerking etc. Only difference at the rear I think is that the car has bigger and wider wheels. But handled great.

Got me a little worried now though. If you can break traction with low boost, when mine is on the road, I'm going to have to be very careful.
