Toyota MR2 Spyder

Posted by on March 19, 2012

Toyota MR2 SpyderI always liked the MR2. You don't see many small affordable mid-engine cars. This car is basically an over sized go kart. You can't go super fast and there is not much torque so its hard to smoke the tires. It's so hard infact that even during testing when I set the LSD up all the way it still had trouble producing quick power. Not too much to say it does everything well and looks cool. Brake points on tracks you just have to watch for because sometimes it stops no prob and other times you should of applied them earlier and get under steer out the corner.
