ok we all know dsm's can go in a straight line really fast, but may i suggest something different. togue. yes i said it take a curve, learn to drive, its a great way to hone your skills, plus its fun and exciting, try finding a curvey road, with a hill, with a posted speed of 25 to 40 mph. also atleast a half to a mile long. if anyone is intersted and is close to columbia tn we have a togue team.

all i know is that it seems the people who enjoy togue a few and far between. for those who dont know what it is go buy some initial d dvd's and watch them.

yes having awd is great but i am not that lucky. i ended up with the fwd version but atleast i dont have to worry about breaking the back end lose to drift. just find the line and follow it thru.

that is true, less risk of too much power thru the turn and breaking loose to the point where you cant recover.
