Of crashing. Yeah it has an airbag - but when I hear a crash on the TV - I am pyshically sick, if I come up a bit quick to another car all I see is the accident. If I am driving and its stressful - like heavy rain or something I can;t breath properly. I never used to be like this - i was confident before

Liz I have been in more accidents than most ( usually as a navigator ) but found that by having confidence in your safety equipment and your self , the fear subsides fairly quick.

With the amount of times I have been in a roll ( bout 25 ) I worked out I am not destined to die in a motor car.

i think we should organize some sorta wet skid pad day

-my friend fully crashed his s15 the other day because he lost traction and panicked,did the wrong thing and braked..and flipped his car

Unfortunately , there is no one in Perth who has a skidpan.

When it rains at the MC track , it's great fun though.

lol @ ken.. after 25 rolls (separate occasions?!) then i'd say you have a correct hypothesis.. :D

Nah , 1 rotation is a roll. Was in a Triumph herald ( shaddup ) rally car that went over 31/2 times and caught fire.

Wrote off my rx7 rally car at a Sth Australia rallysprint with a 31/2 ( including 2 in the air ) .

Targa was 1 or so in 2001.

2 with my dad in a Datsun 1600 rally car

The list goes on...

    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
    • LOL well, lucky mine doesn't have some R shit on it. Around town, it handles so much better than the R33, R33 in the wet is pretty dangerous to the untrained hoon, especially with 13kg/mm front springs.
