Excel shows potential at Supersprint

The Excel debuted at it's first track day and it surprised a few people including myself. We were out there to see what it would do in standard form. We were hoping to run a 1:12.00 around the track if we were lucky but we managed to get the car down to a time of 1:10.60, beating alot of high performance cars. out of a field of 36 Aaron (my brother) managed to finish 19th with a time of 1:10.6 and I finished 20th with a time of 1:10.7. The car suffered a fair bit of oversteer with the standard bushes and lack of stiffness in the body. The brakes weren't up to scratch either, although once these minor issues are sorted I'm hoping to get a 1:08.00 out of the car. I will be getting some Whiteline swaybars and nolathane rubbers for the car shortly and that should help with the handling.
The highlight of the day was a close 4 way battle with 2 Minis and a Daewoo. had a blast...
