Sprinting / Hill climbing?

Post by luffy340 » 18 Aug 2009 04:27 pm

Anybody do or have any expereince in the above.

I bought the 340 to use mainly as a fun road car with the odd track/drift day.

i want to use it as much as poss and was looking at maybe entering into sprinting events next year, not with the hope of winning, just for the fun, so was wondering if anybody had any pointers.

cheers
