Dirty Driving

Do all u guys, when the roads a bit wet and u go for a spin and drive preety hard (7000rpm) gear changes and then come back home notice that there is mud all down the side skirts, door and back??

And the rain never washes it off either, only washes the bonnet and boot!!

Wet is good, longer drifts in higher gears = more fun. My GTS can't hold a drift in the dry in third, but it sure does in the wet!!!

A drift in the wet... or a slide of the back wheels.. there is a big difference..

I'm sure you could wire in a switch so that you can 4WD off and on. Then you got the best of both worlds, grip when you need it, and no grip for a bit of fun.
