Tips on driving a 182

[medici999]

Sounds a daft question, but there must be some driving tips that can make you develop a feel for the car better.

I dont mean like daft comments like dont floor is round a roundabout etc..just things to make you a better faster driver.

No doubt i will get lots of silly answers...but oh well.

 

[JoedotwasT5phy]

Drive it like a normal car? i don't understand why you are concerned? just put it into a corner and gradually get a feel for the limits.

 

[RS182Lancs]

Drive it like you stole it:rasp:

 

[Waitey]

WTF

Its a clio get a grip.

 

[Sarah]

do an advanced driving course mate if your that worried

seriously. do you actually have a licence?

why you have something so powerful when you dont know how to drive it!!!

 

[W17GLE]

drive it flat out everywhere it won't break then and don't let off mid corner

 

[Will.]

Thread number 8 or 9 by now?

Just get used to the car, don't push the limits. Take it easy.

well i had a fiesta st for a year and never had any dangerous moments so not doing to badly i guess.

 

[Gally]

I've never been upset or annoyed at anyone on here before but...

you'll be reet.. my sister's boyfriend has a ST and drives my car fine.

how did you find that? was it scary when you went over 40 mph?

 

[Dave]

Dont let off mid corner. If anything accelerate.

 

[MonkeyKnifeFight]

if you lift of round a relativley tight round about at speed the back may break free which is likely to enduce brown trousers the first time it happens.

If you want to snap your passangers neck drive at 70 then put it in third and boot it

 

[Tom]

Lift off into corners, i find it aids rear traction (Only above 80mph)

 

[Will.]

I've never been upset or annoyed at anyone on here before but...Ive never seen someone make so many threads on getting a new car!

honest of you gally.

 

[Sarah]

is your next thread going to be how do you start a car?

 

[The Boosh!]

If you find the back end sliding in front of you, make sure you turn away from the corner. This will 90% of the time recover the car from the slide.

Also if you are understeering, don't brake. Instead put the steering wheel straight and keep your foot in it.

 

[Dafthead]

Nip the handbrake on sharp corners to help you get round.

Seriously..wtf

Sorry, i had to:lolup::lolup:

 

[W17GLE]

it'll never beat a ph1 in a race either so save yourself the embarrasment and don't try it on a meet if you ever go on one.

Pedals;

Left = Use when changing gears
Middle = Slower
Right = Faster.

Big round thing infront of you - Turn this to go round corners.

HTH

Tbh, it wouldnt be the 1st time. Maz posted a video of him starting his cup iirc.

He's another 'tard btw.

 

[AlexHealy]

Do you want to try driving mine?

This threads brightened up my day..comical!

FLOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also if you start it in 5th with the throttle fully depressed you get 2% more power. (Its like the level select on Sonic)

And removing 1 HT lead from the coil pack for 3.5 miles improves fuel consumption over that distance.

tbf mate, you kind of roll in the petrol and ask to be flamed on here.

If it isnt 8 gazillion threads on what car you should buy (or your grandad should buy) then its threads like "how to drive a 182" christ almighty mate.

A grip.




You should get one.

Iirc changing the HT leads around every other day confuses the engine to make it believe its a cow.

When you start it it'll moo.

I would actually laugh so hard i'd s**t in my pants if the next thread this dude started was entitled

''Help, i've crashed it on a sweeping bend''.

Cue the next thread on where to get one from and which is the best.

 

[p@blo]

Just drive it fella-surely half the fun is figuring out for yourself how it drives?

Failing that, surely an advanced driver course would be a good bet if youre looking for pointers on getting smoother/quicker.

As useful as this thread to be honest:

Not sure that works on the Racing Blue ones, i have been trying and it wont work . Could it be because i dont have stripes ?

[Pearcy]

Didn't he say a few weeks ago if he doesn't do x within x we can ban him? What was it?

 

[Moz168]

Too true

Are you still in the Highlands? Or did you get some petrol in the morning?

 

[AlexHealy]

Didn't he say a few weeks ago if he doesn't do x within x we can ban him? What was it?

Yeah, he said before 7th June.

Actually, pics required, might be bullshitting us.
