A couple of good pictures of the Corolla on its first outing :thumb: (now on my screen saver at work.) I notice a couple of things wrong with the handling 1/ Needs stiffer front springs and anti roll bars 2/ Needs a greater castor angle (10 degrees :-D ), its not good having to feed the steering wheel back to centre, and the car feels unstable on a fast road. Oh and a set of those roll centre spacers
The engine Power I thought was spot on

It could have cost me the price of a track day to work that lot out which proves the worth of participating in these sprint events

I couldn't make it to the autotesting on the 14th as I'd booked into the Pistonheads trackday the next night (last night) at Snetterton. Wish that I had as there was still a lot of skidmarks on the car park & sadly the Cobra only lasted 2 laps before the gearbox jammed & it turned out to be an expensive trackday at
