Some good cars on your forum AK, that 'tiger' looks brutal

The lotus is a hell of a track car aswell, loving the full cage and shit!

You got more plans for the skyline (power wise) or are you happy with it?

its got no problems with around 450 just now.

The Torque slipt controller does its best to keep the power front/rear mid corner.

Rear diff is on its way though i though. Can feel it spinning the inside wheel a bit coming out of tight corners

Also - 600 will be MAX... just a twiddle of a dial and it will be 450 again, so its all pretty much adjustable.
