I think the other problem is I'm used to being able to steer and brake at the same time (the sole purpose of ABS!) but in this with even the slightest bit of steering while braking it just locks and ends up sliding sideways. :?
Maybe it's the weightlessness of the car too....I mean the heavy golf with a heavy PD engine must put plenty of force down onto the front wheels......but theres not much weight in the NAD so not enough downforce to keep traction maybe? :think:
well tom, dont drive it like the golf as they are different cars.
i think you have shit tyres tbh tom as if its acting up like that in the wet. get your arse down to the local scrappy and see if they have a 106 in with wider tyres or a 406 with bigger wheels like dum dum has done.
another thing tom, if its like that in the wet dont give it beans either. my rover would shite it self over 4k rpm in the wet. did your 4k change ups and the car was ok. that was with the skinnys on
