Short clip

Wednesday, February 18, 2009

Breaking in the engine three weeks ago was not a drift session at all, with the engine on low boost, only half throttle and low rev driving, but there was some occasional drift happening anyway, the car is soo nicely built for it and track was dusty and slippery. Last weekend we were supposed to start tire testing but believe it or not, the sun does not always shine in California! So we're hoping for NO RAIN this upcoming weekend. In the meantime, a tiny clip. See ya on the track soon. /Carl
