Re: Any Opinion on Dax GT40?

Mark

You're welcome to come and have a look see if you want. Better if it's dry as I only have a single garage and it's tight!

Then if it's a dry day time for a spin?

Handling and brakes etc - well it turns and stops better than anything I have driven for ages but the loud pedal always makes me smile.

I've had mine on Gurston Down track at a training day so no times and it scared me how quick it accelerated and then hauled iself back down for corners - lots of ture squeal but they are old - time hardened BF Goodriches that are on it

Me - road tyres and not wanting to bend it on my second ever run at the hill. (Next time up I spun the selector on the gear linkage shaft and could only get 2nd and 4th from there on in)
