I entered the second corner after the start in 2nd gear, foot off the gas to make sure the front will grip. This photo was takes just miliseconds before the rear suddenly let go resulting in an impressive drift. Yes, on dry tarmac at 50kph.

This time, I finished my braking well before the corner and rolled onto the gas as the car entered the corner:

Nothing happening here. 58hp hard at work *yawn*:

Anywhoo, what scares me in that little shitbox is the fact that it gives no warning that the rear is about to slide. It happens in an instant, all you have to do is loose you concentration for a moment, and *bam* you're dead. I hope the feedback will be better when I'll get a racing seat and harness.

#7, The steering doesn't give you any clue at all? Is it a manual rack?

#8, Manual, rack and pinion (around 4.5 turns lock-to-lock though, makes slaloms and stuff a bitch), in very good condition. I can feel what the front is doing, allright, but the back end remains a mystery.

#9, that's a really, really slow rack! I imagine if it were a bit quicker you'd have more of a clue about what the rear was about to do.

#10, Yeah, it's much slower than the one in my father's Tipo (which is about twice the size of the 5). I can make a 180 degree turn with the steering wheel without shifting my hand position, this is usually enough for most corners, especially short ones and slaloms, chicanes and such. Not in this car, though. First time I discovered just how slow the rack was was when I had to make an acute angle corner. I executed my standard "hard turn" manouvre (one hand shifts on the wheel to the top or opposite side of the turn I'm about to make, grips the wheel, the second hand looses the grip and lets the wheel slide through the fingers, the hand that shifted pulls the wheel and when the hands are opposite to each other, the other hand grips the wheel and after that it's a standard 180 degree turn) and almost ran into a fence. Had to reverse, lost around 10 or 15 seconds right there.

#11, Needless to say, with such a nervous car, the slow rack makes catching a slide quickly and precisely rather hard.
