Had my first runs with the ZX-5 at york last night.

Generally really impressed, it was though a bit evil with new mini-pins all round, when it was on the carpet it gripped like hell. Didn't break anything, even with grip rolling at the end of the straight and crashing in style.....

Apart from that, and my terrible driving, it's looks really promising, i'm going to change the kit springs to associated (if they fit) as the kit ones are too soft, especially on the front.

The car looks nice going around the track, seems to sit really nicely and it's very controlable on the slippy floor, you can really throw it into the corners and it seems really well balanced and weighted.

All in all Very impressed, not quite as good as the BJ yet... but for a kit set up straight out of the box it was excellent. Can't wait to try a better set up next week.

By the way, where's the best place to get spares in the UK, as I could do with some, and some wheels ? Ta.
