With a 2 litre in it it should spin its wheels on damp roads shouldnt it? I remember someone a year or two back claiming his mate had a photo on his phone of his 1500hl dolomite smoking the back tyres (tyre) on tarmac! This was a few months back on a different engine :P

"Yer hes right he don't have enough power" :lol:

It should. My sprint could spin the wheels on 1/3rd throttle if you wound it up to about 3.5k and dropped the clutch.
