Is it just me or does any spirited acceleration end up with smoke and wheelspin and no forward momentum!!!
So sorry, it is just you!
Do not despair, however. It took me about two thousand miles to really get the hang of this car and what I could do with it. I openly admit that I am an aggressive driver and I like to punch it when the situation is calling for some hoonish behavior.
That being said, I had to change out my tires at 3,000 miles as the car will drift and that eats the Avons up front and you can scratch in the first three gears, which will eat the rear, without trying at times.
View these initial tires as training wheels...
After replacing said tires I had learned the evil of my ways and they have lasted longer. Swap out the Avons for Blockleys will be a great improvement. Swapping out the Blockleys for the Coker Excelsior line will further add longevity.
Any good symmetrical rear car tire will do IMHO.
I am on my fifth set of fronts and my third rear in over 31,000 miles. As I said, I like to play...
