would have to remove my front bumper as any sort of off, grass or gravel, would end in disaster. Braking too hard might dip the front enough to ruin the bumper also.

Id take mine on a track if i wasnt skint.
Its hard enough keeping my car together and running properly then destroying it on a track. As much as id love to i could afford it for a few years yet. Plus it all sounds mega scary and the thought of totalling my car is horrible
