Dont drive a Zonda in the rain

[will26]

Had the Zonda out in Lincoln on Wednesday. What a complete nightmare. Never ever drive one in the rain. I couldnt even put my foot on the accellerator for more than 10 seconds without it skidding and throwing the back end out. Was horrible. Had to park it up at a mates and get a lift back to Nottingham. Ive never had such difficulties with any other car before, and I have got through quite a few. But I was really scared in this. Especially trying to get up Lindum hill in traffic. AArrGGhhh.

Still was worth it for all the attention I got when I was parked up on the Brayford.

Give me a shout if you're ever passing through Tamworth - I'll show you how to drive it in the rain

Christ your a brave man taking a Zona up Lindum Hill at all never mind in the rain. I would be more scared of numpties who need to be in the left hand lane as soon as they pass the traffic lights.

[will26]

Yeah there are plenty of numpties round there.

Had great difficulty negotiating the speed humps too.

[stackmonkey]

I'm surprised it can actually get over them at all.

My drive has plenty of space if you are ever caught out again in the Hampshire/Wiltshire area.

Dont think I will be going, its a bit too far for me to get to this weekend. I am hoping to make the end of the PH midlands meet on the 30th. And I might possibly do the tunnel run in July.

[karluk29]

cool, might have to pop down to gaydon again myself at the
end of the month, wish i could get to london to do more tunnel
runs, only done the boxing day run. known a couple of the guys for
a long time now though, deff like to see/hear the zonda though,
very very special car, you have any pics of it

We are talking torrential downpours. I dont mean normal rain its fine in that. But in flooded roads the traction control wont let you accelarate, and with it turned off you get no grip.

[Typhon]

I've heard similar horror stories from the owner of the silver Zonda in this year's Gumball

[will26]

really, they are very difficult to manouvre(sp) at slow speeds. There not like Ferraris or Lambos.
