Okay Okay so I only have a 2.0LPT. But 150 horses at the front still makes for reasonably rapid progress unless you're at Silverstone.
Anyway my mate has a Rennault 19 16v. Its about the same age of mine 1995 with 1.8 137 bhp engine & about half the weight. We were both on the way home from the gym the other night & I was giving it large where I could on the Motorway & lets be honest - he was struggling to keep up.
Feeling good about this we pull up to the lights. Late evening - no traffic - dry road & I have 4 P6000 boots on. Feeling chipper I wait...........red.......amber....green GO GO GO. I feel some wheel spin - no problem I expect a chirp as the tyres bite - only they don't in fact my car starts bouncing like one of those American pimp mobiles as my mates Renault streaks into the distance & I'm doing 6000 revs and about 2 miles an hour - how [expletive deleted]. Easing off the throttle now totally deflated.
Living in Northern Ireland I'm not exactly handy to Abbots for some mods - just wondered what you wise sages would suggest to boost traction so that I can give my mate a sound thrashing
