Who's is this then? Looks like an absolute beast. Interesting how much Jack came around to it after he drove it a bit more.

Arcdef?

 

[arcdef]

Yeah that is mine.

Was a shame the weather wasn't great as when Jack started the test it was very slippery, the car really is very stable and has good grip when you get used to it as i think you can see with the extra bit Jack added to the end once it the sun came out.

Aha thought I recognised it. Lovely car mate. Was it fun watching him drive it or a bit nerve wracking?

 

[arcdef]

Thanks! It was a little bit at first but he has driven more powerful cars so knew he'd be fine. Was interesting that he picked up on the steering, ever since I put on the Apex engineered 'quick steer' knuckles it's felt a bit odd just off centre but I have gotten used to it now!

That's odd. I have read mixed reviews about quick steer knuckles though. Doesn't sound like it's really an issue for you though?

 

[Robotsan]

And yeah he loves the Zs doesn't he. Would be cool if he bought one.

Enjoyed the video! Glad that he added the final clip, what a difference the weather made!

I remember watching your videos on youtube just after i bought it! Was funny reading the comments on the video, everyone thinking its a death trap but its really not!
