if you can't pull away without wheel spinning you need to learn some right foot control,

[r3k1355]

You mean 40Psi is too much?!?

[Curt]

Yeah, the thread title is somewhat misleading...

[Rippthrough]

Hah, my 1.4 span all the way through 3rd last week.

Okay, it was on wet gravel. Uphill. With frost. And I dropped the clutch hard. And the Yoko's have gone like plastic in the cold.

But, POWWWAHHH!

[Niall]

I spun up into 9th gear the other week....on my bike...power i tell ya!

[CJ_Derv]

HAHA Ive always loved them to be fair, a lot of people hate them but when running my brembos they still manage to stop fairly good considering tread pattern.

ive also found them great fun in the snow haha

Can also tell mine are low with the aweful aquaplaning on M66 near me over the weekend

it was a constant problem in mine. one of the reasons i had to change to the estate. The extra weight over the rear wheels gives more grip for fast starts!

6th with 4wd, what do I win?

[Midnightclub]

spinning up the wheels, through 3rd.. in a 1.8? Now who did a thread like this before......... Tom?

[4WayDiablo]

I managed to spin a standard DTurbo up in 2nd :-) mega

[306Dan]

6th gear spinnage FTW

[CJ_Derv]

Mite try reverse spinnage after reading these replies haha cos i aint got 6 gears

[samass]

I got wheel spin in the NAD, beat that! f*cking tower of power, can't hold back the horses!

As Joe said...If you can't pull away without wheel spinning either stick decent (not part-worn!) tyres on or learn how to control the car properly. I've got a very heavy right foot (Hence putting my con rod through the side of my block!) but even I can do a quick getaway with little or no spin...

And as for 4th gear wheelspins without the clutch I had a Corsa Sport 1.6 that did that quite well!

As you can tell I am back peoples...Still minus a Pug though *SOBS*

[CJ_Derv]

Yayyyy your backkkk lol

Just noticed you were going essex could you not have spun your wheels over that rylans face

Genuinely not sure if you're joking or not...

How much kinda power are we talking here?

[Midnightclub]

Well they're 100bhp IIRC......

[4WayDiablo]

And the only way you would manage that in a cross is on bold tyres uphill in the piss pouring rain beating the hell out of the clutch lol
