I gave a friend the first ride and nearly scared the pants off of me, Brakes were still little green. That Detroit Locker really bites coming out of tight turns and coming in , well lets just say you better leave the sissy pants at home. :drive: Started with a full tank of fuel and ten minutes into the third session it started to run out . I pulled off and was headed to the gas station. I rounded the shell station there at the track and Kaboom all shat broke loose. I think it must of had a defect. I think this car is trying to pay me back from the stunt I pulled on it last year. |

Bummer Roy! Runnin' a Detroit Locker you may want softer springs. I went through a set of front tires in one weekend with a stiff set-up the first time I had the Detroit out on track. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) I also thought I was going to need new kidneys! The other part is you learn to modulate the locking with your right foot. Take it easy until you get used to the way it works.
