it's got a bit of roll and squat but i already have plans for that, besides the limp sidewalled michelins rolling over and scrubbing the sidewalls almost halfway down to the rim till i pumped them up to like 43# (could'a used another 5 but i was tired of ****ing with it) it went pretty good and was fairly neutral otherwise, ran against a buddy with a 84 533 with a intercooled tcd turbo kit pushing at least 100 hp more them me with nothing really more then a chip and intake pipe to my credit, i came in 2-3 seconds behind him over a 50 second or so single lap course, with stiffer tires and a couple more laps i could maybe of trimmed that down but he was getting better too learning the dr jeckel mr hyde turbo power band with the corners, i think he was kicking my ass in the straights and the corners were around even
