The twistys on the MC track that is setup will get your back end out if it goes out so easy.

Does it do it in the dry (obviously a bit more speed needed)? If it does it sounds like the rear suspension is gone like Dan's cousins did.

See you in September too

only prob i have is, the norm with awds and thats understeer. Only time i get oversteer is wen i turn the wheel and plant my foot. So i would assume that its mechanical rather than driver. would wheel balancing have an issue with this?
