Yeh i used to be able to spin the tyres in my 1.5ltr excel all the way through first second and third. (in the wet that is) F**k that car was a pig too drive in the wet. even if you were trying to drive normally you'd cop understeer and front wheel lock-up. god damn wanli's.

when it rained and on certain roads, i could punch the accelerator and it would just sit there and spin. The issue is the car had a huge amount of torque and its heavy as and it just sits there and spins.
