Let's hope it doesnt literally kill you. The hiways are not race courses, you are out on the road with a million stupid people that dont watch for you. Slow it down son, we dont want to send your family flowers and condolences.

A little initial understeer is good. Apply pressure to that longer pedal on the right to get to neutral. Stop street racing and go to the track.

thanks dad...
yes... i was careful... i made sure no one is near the cloverleaf
and abandoned parkinglots are great for determining under/oversteer

rock on! I'm back home in upstate ny and we just got done cleaning up the bugeye.
Now if only the scattered thunderstorms would pass, I can go blast it (and the ghia) on the country roads here where safety is never an issue.
suns back out...gotta go!

Aaron, you should make your car as safe as Sklines.

Country roads don't have other stupid drivers but they do have large brown hairy fender denters with horns. I've heard them called dear, but I think they are the devil.

Sounds like you're getting there.
Glad to here it's running so well. Can't wait to see it.
