Title: MOT car control day at Finmere yesterday
Post by: MrHanky on June 26, 2010, 06:33:17 PM
Took my EGI out for the day at Finmere yesterday. Was a brilliant day and I feel a lot more confident pushing the car now. I have never really had a lot of confidence at pushing a car round bends etc as I was never really sure about my ability should the car get out of shape. This day helped me get to grips with understeer, oversteer and generally pushing the car.
In the afternoon they setup a little drift area. This was great fun, but I did find it very hard to do. Partly due to my ability and partly due to the Hankook RS2\'s which really did grip well.
 
I took my in car camera thing there and got quite a lot of footage. Here is one clip below.
