I last had mine out during Monterey Historics week. One of my sons and I are cruising down Carmel Valley Road when I get one of these "C'mon dad, don't be a *****, punch it!" challenges from son #2. Feeling terribly wounded, I floor the thing while in 2nd gear at about 40 mph. The thing goes completely sideways from breaking the rear end loose, starts wigging and wagging back and forth as I'm doing steering corrections until I grab 3rd at 80+ mph...and then the thing does it all over again. Then go nail some apexes - even at the track I've never had a street-legal car that just won't under steer, no matter how clumsily I'm driving it. Go too deep in a corner, no problem. Exit too early, no problem. BUT, get on the gas hard when not pointed straight? BIG PROBLEM, few drivers are good enough to catch it without a lot of runout room. Not for the timid, but definitely also not for the brave...
