I had my 3dr 3yrs, from normal stg1 upto mad stripped out and 400bhp.
Never crashed it, come close a lot tho, awesome fun, lol.
As a lot of people know on here, i drive like a fookin madman, but never any accidents, even tho id use it hard rain or shine, even tho id do my damndest ro have the thing slideways or wheelspinning as much as poss, even tho it did spin the wheels in 5th in the wet n 3rd in the dry with ease, lol.
Main thing is get used to it, build up your driving madness slowly, dont just do what most people do, take it easy for a bit, think they know the crack, give it some full bore n bin the fooker straight away.
Its about knowing your abilitys, reading the road conditions well, and good (and correct) reactions!
