BOOYAH ! ! That was SWEEET ! ! We got a 12-lap free run for the third and last session - AwesomE ! Must admit, the two 5-lap "pace car" sessions were teh pooh - The second sessin especially, since I was more or less comfortable with the car, and just wanted to be let loose to find my own pace. Cars handle pretty good, although they're setup for quite alot of understeer to make them easy for poofters to drive. My car had a "monoshock" front-end, which is renowned for being an understeering pig, even when setup properly. Engines were punchy for a 1600cc, which you'd expect in a car weighing a touch over 400kg. I could throttle-steer it in 2nd, but there was just too much understeer dialed into the chassis to get it floating in a 4-wheel drift in 3rd. Definately worth the $300 I paid to get My voucher.
