Well, that proves it Ramon....gotta rebuild my front end.

My Tigger can go very quickly from understeer to oversteer.  Winter project
I suppose.  And it will help when I can get Smitty to finish reinforcing my
spare cross member!

<< "The difference between 'understeer' and 'oversteer' is which end of the
car goes
 through the course barriers (snow fence/hay bales) first.">>

Seems like I read or heard somewhere that understeer scares the sh*t out of
the driver and that oversteer scares the sh*t out of the passenger.

In the case of me and the Tiger, I'm not so sure if it's actually the
understeer that scares the sh*t out of the driver or the goofy things he
does
trying to compensate for it!

I think Steve originally meant to say that the Tiger was prone to
understeer--the rest of the post sounded cool.
