It was okay tbh. I kept changing down way too early for the condition which meant I was pretty much going into most corners sideways. The beauty of the Hornet though is that it's very forgiving and you could control the slide with a bit of acceleration. The front was rock solid though and it only really stepped out when I braked into a bend to avoid some debris left from a Porsche cup car (it's front splitter). All in all a great excercise in control and being subtle with the right hand.
