    Tony- performance diff between the duelers and the General AT2 is shocking, wouldn't have believed the bridgestones were that bad if I hadnt felt it for myself. to quote the mechanic when I asked him if the duelers were omni directional- 'yep sh*t in all directions' Dave (and others)- yep...

B*stards should be used to explode IED's anyway to answer a few of the points - It's taily under acceleration in the wet. It also has moments while cruising at a...

    new to forum and a handling question

    ta, I'll mention it to my friendly mechanic, what's odd though is in dry conditions she handles like a dream, tops a 100mph without any issues and manouvres well. Wet roads I'll not take it over 60 unless I've load in as otherwise its totally taily. It went into the ice slide at 30mph, spun...
