Once the car is "done" and out on it's first event, There will be a new post diary "Adventures and Development of the Puma"

Once it's done I'm going to learn to drive it sideways, initially, (hopefully), a snow and ice deserted car park in February, to practice low speed drifts, then a few Tarmac Autotests to find the limits in the dry, with pleny of "spin off" room and no rocks /trees to hit, and finally out in the forests slowly at first to get it sussed on gravel, and allthe while, playing with suspension settings etc  ...........

I need to learn to slide it safely first, as I'd rather not take it out and total it on its first event 

Last time i did a Stage Rally, it was in a Mk1 Mexico in 1983 !!
