I wring my 14 out quite alot, but have never experinced the three wheel corner, I rebuilt the entire front end recently and was amazed yesterday when I was entering our local highway and while cranking onto the entrance ramp at WOT the right front wheel comes off the ground and then back down as I come out of the curve, kind of unerving at first, but I'm going back to do it again tonight!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I love the sensation!

Don't do this on the street. Take it to a track to get your three wheel'n fun.

Three wheels means your suspension is not setup correctly.
Back off on the sway bar. add more rear spring. Rich |

What Rich said.
and I also agree with track or autocross. With a passenger you can also tell the front wheel is carrying because of the funny scared noises coming from the passnger. and the steering wheels gets wierd feeling. |

But it was fun! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I know I need new rear springs, the front end rebuild was first the rear end is next, then Koni's all around. I am planning on visting our local track (Gingerman Raceway) soon.

I disagree with Rich and Joe, somewhat. (Except with the "take it to the track" part!) Three-wheelin' is not that bad in and of itself; it may be that the only way to really get the car properly balanced is to get it cornering on three. The tail-dragger guys do it all the time; the FWD crowd has cars that assume the "pissing dog" attitude... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
