2 spins is nothing! he done 8!!!!!!!!!
ur back tyres must b bald then! if u brake in wet on a corner u can spin and if u go to fast
bloody shame for the farmer hope he hasnt broke his fence

mine can get a little on the edgy side in the wet. but to be honest no car will grip as well in the wet.
just take it easy & you should be ok mate, at least you know it acts like that now & hopefully it shouldn't catch you out

mine doesnt do it if im doing sensible speeds - maybe a change of tyres is needed

yup - same here Mark. fine when the power is down (especially as my tyres are pretty new) but if i lift off on a corner it can become fun smileys/smiley17.gif
