if you need general hints & tips mate - just do a search for 'tips' or summit

Plenty of ppl have asked the Qs, and there's always the same answers.
One thing I will say (which you'll know if you're a RWD man) is don't have a heavy right foot at this time of year

<swiss> Driving your Elise should be like making love to a beautiful woman. Take it slowly at first, taking care to warm her up. Be gentle and smooth when you're manoeuvering her, particularly when it's slippy. She may enjoy a bit of rough play every now and again, letting her know who's in charge, but make sure you're in a safe environment. The bottom line is...
Treat her with respect and she'll love you for it. </swiss>
