Innit !!!!

The Sport is a Yuppie ICON, a 1980s classic, no wonder us Sport drivers got the "Sport swagger" as PacerPete describes the pheonomenoen :-)

I have a feeling it will become a donor to my car if you continue twerking it on roundabouts :violin:

I have driven it with open diff when I first got it and now has LSD. LSD makes it more enjoyable when drifting and allows you to continue the drift more easily. However, with only 171bhp is relatively "low powered" RWD so you have to be in the right gear and feather / modulate the throttle to keep the rear wheels spinning plus catch the slide and unwind the lock to prevent "tank slapper"

I did a donut the other day in gravel car park though not on the spot donut just in a small circle and "styled" it :-)
