[Bibbo 3]

Well I'm a 10: learner driver.

[]But my enthusiasm makes up for it!![]

[BiggusDitchus 38]

Like the idea of 7 but 3 is close(who needs brakes they only slow you down)[]

[Guest Carsnboats]

Interesting range of choices. can't settle on one particular one. I am a combination of 2,3 and 11. Always try to get airborne, enjoy handbraking corners on wet tracks or powersliding. And always try to be 1st at the first corner. If I can't be first I prefer to hangback, let everyone pile up at the first corner then slide through the wreckage usually into 1st or 2nd place.[]

Im A number 7 and 6

In my xr4ti, Im a 2. In my old truck, a 5. In the explorer, a 3. Xr4ti breaks the rear loose very easy, and is great fun to push the limits around any corner. My truck is slow off the line, dosent inspire much high speed confidence. Its more fun to just trundle along, blocking impatient traffic, with a get there when I get there kinda attitude. The explorer inspires confidence up to its limit, when things get very tippy scary. Its a great vehicle to be in a hurry with because one can bully their way through traffic in the quick, easy driving suv.

Of course, if your refering to rc, then I think I am a 1, but really,Im a 2 1/2. I just recently tried driving a 1/16 rc tank, and with that I am deffinately a 10.

I guess you mean then for RC, anyway in RC I would say 2-3, in 1:1 sometimes 1 (with minmal understeer effiecient & fast) and sometimes 2 (provoked oversteer, fun but slow), note that this in comparison to an average driver, of course there are always faster ones []

Definitely a number 5.[^]

[TWINSET 1793]

13 - Strange, from over here it looks like it should go under that bench no problem - where did the roof land?[]

[njmlondon 570]

I like to mix a bit of 2 with 11, but normally get totally overconfident and end with some 6...

I think another category could be what sort of Back-Seat Driver are you? If you let anybody drive your cars do you

a) egg them on to go faster

bury your head in your hands and pray

c) use the word "gentle" a million times not understanding how somebody can be so ham fisted with the throttle and stearing

d) look over their shoulders nervously saying "here... let me show you..."

e) yell "c'mon get some air you wimp"

f) yell "keep away from that... yes the wall... yes THAT WALL... ****"

g) say "when the car is going away from you left on the transmitter is left on the car... and when it is coming towards you left makes the car go left but it is to your right... thats right, right... no... dont go that way... no... turn it the other way... ****"

g) none of the above because nobody is ever let getting near them

[TWINSET 1793]

I only backseat drive other people's cars - Go on, aim for the ramp, bit faster, oops, now that was silly[]

[jacolouw 6]

After 22 years of racing .....ummmm......say between 3 & 2.

As I used to say "In r/c racing - The more you practice the luckier you get"

and h... (there were 2 'g's so i called the last one h) Nobody gets to touch them anymore. [^] It was always a combination of b, c, d, f and g. I got sick and tired from that so my transmitter is stored away for nobody to reach (except for me of course)... [] I really had to, else my cars wouldn't be so nice anymore... [xx(] LOL []
