I love Istrian roads... even underpowered cars slide around and have milion HP efect :mrgreen: :driving


Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far you take the wall with you.

Hi there! Beatiful car! :thumbsup
I was in the Austrian Alps last summer(gone through Slovenia ), and i loved too!

How is the E46 steering rack feels for you? Is it a RHD steering rack right? I was thinking about that modification, because i got exhausted on slalom courses from the factory 4 turn steering rack :driving :mrgreen: . In Hungary RHD E46 steering racks is quite cheap, because there is a lot of that cars in the salvage yards.
