I'm interested to hear that setup, but I'm a corner guy...something that can combine the skill of the driver and the machine. My rear suspension is pretty much where I want it as far as handling, maybe a slight bit more body roll in the back end, but otherwise sticks beautifully. The front is my problem, doesn't matter if you're on the throttle or not, the thing slides if you power in too hard or brake in to the corner too hard. I'll give the skank2's one more try when I get my front x-member redone and add in the DA front sway bar...the guys at the tracks are going to hate me :P

i have to make it step out, but i dont try it unless i know there isnt anyone in the other lane/know the road really well. it takes a hard flick to do it though. it easiest to do it between 35-50mph and then floor it so the tire spin straightens me out
when i am just out bombing the local mountain roads i usually only get understeer on downhill and off-camber corners.


i dont run a front sway bar so i couldnt tell ya
