Openpitlane March 19, are you sure ?

Skylimit often works in open pitlane. In this case, you can even go combo with an open pitlane (and open straight!!) at the Nurburgring.

I was trying to push it out, but didn't expected to be that harsh, still it was fun until the electronics jumped in. It's my first RWD car so I still need a lot of practice to get it done correctly. It's the only 'corner' here that I can use to practice in the neighborhood, it's open, a good view of oncoming traffic and some free space when it go's wrong.
And there it's basicly performing a Scandinavian Flick, did it a lot with my Astra and it was fun, but with the GT it's going to be crazy

But I agree with Remme, when I was having fun in the snow the nanny's will pull u straight, regardless of what you are doing. It's fine when it's doing it on a straight, but if you are halfway a corner with your nose pointed to the curb, it's not fun.

Got back from the office and the counter indicated ... I'm missing a small km for the 1600km (1000 miles)

hi people. another one from belgium has found his way to this forum.
i've known about it for a few months now but never really saw the use in registering but since i've had the car for a good 2,5 weeks now, i figured what's the harm.

so i picked my car (orange with satnav, cloth seats) up on the worst day possible: the second day of the heavy snow we had in January. worst of all, i had to take the bus to the dealership because i'd sold my previous car 5 days earlier. the good thing about picking up that day was that 1. i could immediately get used to driving a M/T again after the A/T i had for 4 years before that, at low low speed and 2. i could see how the car would behave on slippery roads. in the hour it took to get home, the back stepped out every time i had to start from standstill, but i could just keep my foot in it and it would straighten out on it's own, with just a little bit of countersteer from my part

what am i planning with the car? well, i've had a first thing done that will remain secret until i have pictures, i've just ordered some chrome bulbs for all indicator lights so will be replacing them as soon as they arrive. and i'm planning on going for an Injen intake and an exhaust that is yet to be determined. other than that, i'm pretty happy with the car, don't need any more power but might have it remapped after the intake and exhaust are installed, we'll see when we get to that point.

Welcome to the Be family!

Did you have winter tires on when you took it from the dealer?

We're all looking for sunnier days to rock

i ordered some winters from the interwebs, brung them to the dealers and got a few euro's for the stock michelins as i'm currently looking for a fresh set of wheels to put the summer tyres on. so hard to decide though...

[janvier]

Hi folks, i proudly present my GT86 M/T; ordered in september, received at the end of november.

It's my first RWD car and the past weeks i had some fun in the snow, sadly i don't have winter tires so very poor grip, but i managed to do some sort of drifts and it was BIG fun!

What's the size of your combo? Love to see some pictures, i'm going for black rims too.

Hey Guys,

Found this new Brz commercial on the web, with some nice driving scene's

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6zS-8FL3Kc"]Right on time - Subaru Brz HD - YouTube[/ame]

it reminds me, when I'm going to the bakery on a sunday morning.
off cours not so fast as in the commercial, but there 1 very nice corner on that route that I take every time with the traction control totally off.
It's a nice way to start the day

Hi Janvier,

The size is 17x7.0
As you can see, they're already on my summer tires, so I'm just waiting for better days ... will surely post pics once I take off my winter tires

Meanwhile, here's a pic from yesterday
