I like it but it is a fake, the air bag deploys too slowly and requires more G force than a little ol ladies hand bag Good though Des.

The BMW is way too tail happy - looks cool but NOT the fastest way to go around corners!!!

Having said that it is well balanced - the best cars for drifting sideways are ones with quite a long chassis with the engine at the front and drive at the back.

To see a truly great handling car look at Caterhams and Westfields etc based on the Lotus 7. I saw a video recently where a Westfield kept pulling away from a racing motorbike around the Nubergring.

Couldn't find it now but did find this one - doesn't seem that fast until you see the way it passes all the bikes and 911s!!!

It is in that car the point I’m making is look at the control the driver has, sure he’s showing off, but look how good he is at getting it back and holding it just there he wants it Des
