Hello Jeffrey,
                ok.. sticky isn't as much fun then... anybody running
                bias ply's? .. seems they would slide the best.. plus
                they are much more progressive as they loose grip..

                i have received several replies about wider rims,
                flaring the fenders, adding spacers... NOT GONNA
                HAPPEN... am looking for what works on STOCK RIMS, no
                body DAMAGE!..

                one of the reasons for such low mileage/year is that i
                live in western washington state.. there are only so
                many days of dry roads per year!.. as most know we
                have two seasons, winter and august... and it rains
                all winter!

                the other has to do with the engine itself, which is
                presently being rebuilt (by Paul A.).. it took two
                quarts of oil for one tank of gas!.. hard to carry
                enough oil to get very far, especially when the engine
                was only giving me 15 mpg!
       

"stickiest", as 4 wheel drifts are one of the fun things about these 
cars, but each to his own.
