2nd gear sideways...
Discussion
3rd certainly and 4th too with enough shoe.
I can remember accelerating away from a toll in france, 1st gear ... fizz go the tyres, 2nd same again, 3rd putting more grunt down now, oh no there go the tyres again, better put it in 4th and nail it and use the torque. It worked well until the I reached about 5500 rpm then the rate of acceleration seems to drop off a bit, that'll be more wheelspin then! No sideways snap but a seat of the pants lightness at the rear. No drama but it put me in my place in the gentlest possible way!
I think the Saggy's probably the least scary tvr to do this in though. Very progressive and communicative as said many times before.
I can't wait until the 21st when I'm reunited with the car again. From experience of driving the t350 in the snow last year I know TVRs are complete overkill in the winter but huge fun if treated with respect.
Shit I've got a Sagaris! How cool is that! I'd almost forgotten what a spawny git I am! Iced titanium, anthracite wheels, black and portland perforated hide, original seats, avic x1 sat nav, cr box...
... all mine.... all mine!
