    Thankyou for the ride along i see a lot off people talking about the turbo. To clarify yea it is big for the track but it also had only 1 revision so boost building was really slow. Thankyou all for the support. It is really underated as i see stated in many comments, true so hope you liked it as much as i did. I will be back hopefully next year with the turbo a bit faster plus more handling and brake mods.❤

      Yeah, it was definitely around stock power... the car was barely accelerating on top of 4th and these cars do not really have this issue not even uphill and 4 people inside. Even so the power was enough and usable, and I was surprised to see the brakes were holding. What brake setup do you have?

      @@christiangwenner6384 I wouldn't call it reckless. Its aggressive though most definitely. Only true racers would understand. Thing is, when one is in a seemingly 'slow' car, they tend to push more because they know the upper limits can be tamed. When one is in a seemingly 'fast' car, they tend to exercise restraint knowing well that there is still room for the upper limits and they car can go really fast thus easy to lose control.
      I have a stock swift, 1.2l. I usually see guys with BMWs slow down at corners while am pedals to the metal in there wondering why the guy in front is so slow in such a beast of a machine. One day I got to handle beast and then I understood. Needless to say, the slow cars teach one efficiency and technique in handling while the super fast cars teach one discipline and restraint. The wisdom of these two mentalities in a very experienced driver is a hidden gem. It is the secret of very great drivers out there. An F1 driver once talked about it by the way can't remember his name. He did go carts in his youth. Taught him a lot.

      I have a Mazda 2 and it's kinda disappointing in the handling and ride control department. It weighs just over a ton, but that's the only thing it has going for it. Feels really stiff over bumps but still has lots of body roll, and it hates to lift oversteer so it doesn't rotate through turns well, it'll just understeer. All of this is with brand new OEM spec suspension.
      The second gen Hyundai Accent I had before it was _so much more_ fun to drive and didn't feel as much like a lumber wagon over bumps. It was also way more sure-footed in the snow than the Mazda despite having crappier tires.

I would have thought you'd turn the DCS off, though. :) Love that the thin wires of the heated windscreen are visible in the camera view, that was an awesome and unqiue feature I really liked. And the hazards kicking in at 7:40 when you hit it too hard on the brakes.^^ Switched to a Mazda 6 wagon from the same time - which I already drove around "The Ring". But I will always have a soft spot in my heart for the Mazda3. :)
