General Evo V

Going back to the gearing, I find unless I'm on a hill 1st gear is almost useless because it is real short and I get to 30 real quick on the flat thrashing through the gears. I certainly keep up with people away from the lights as a young lad in a MK III Fiesta in Southend found out the other day. In fact I find it too easy to do a wheelspin in it, the torque is a little high in the lower gears, and then beyond third the torque drops off. I've gone for some slightly wider wheels so hopefully I can reduce wheelspins on roundabouts and other pull aways.

Or I could just be a bit more gentle on the gas.

Max tourque is around 5500 RPM, so with clutchless gearchanges to maintain high revs anything is possible.

Ok, maybe not then.

Fix It Again Tony!
Would swap for X19, Montecarlo Spider or GT.i.e in average/poor condition! Scottish based would be nice.
