Went on a "car experience day " yesterday at Epping airfield. Had 3 laps each in an impreza, elise, 360 and 430.
track was coned out and relatively short and didn`t even get the 430 out of second. Anyway whilst i appreciate the car`s had track set up they all handled great the elise great fun and fezza`s sounded awsome. Anyway after driving these i decided to have a go in my 2005 spyder and whilst the Larini`s on full blast sounded the part it truly handled like a dog. Never had a problem on the open road before even when "pressing" on in the twisty bits but on a tight track it was a right handful . Whilst i don`t profess to be a Lewis Hamilton(i was as moody after) and really looked a bit of a di_k trying to get it round the track anywhere near as quick as even the Impreza.
The first time anything about the car has dissapointed. Not sure if i want to go down the route of mods or just stay clear of the track!
