To make it relevant to this conversation, that '80 Mustang hatchback with all '86 SVO running gear was a car I bought from Terry Fair (the guy that owns and operates Vorshlag) about 20 years ago. However, neither one of us knew shit back then, and only one of us does now - and it's not me.

I've done many solo II (autocross) events and I held my own, although that was a long time ago. Point is, the drivers setting TToD were all good drivers, regardless of the track. If you can brake, shift, and steer well when doing "160s", then you can definitely drive in a straight line.

I'll step back into the shadows now, and let you real drivers show us how it's supposed to be done.
