anywho, i have always had confidence issues on turn 4 with that damn bump before turn in. how do you navigate through that?
T4 is a fast entry turn; I know I'm right at 100mph there. Maintaining speed is critical. I don't specifically recall a bump before turn-in - meaning I must not alter my line or speed at all because of it. Keep in mind these AWD cars have phenominal grip and balance - that is assuming someone doesn't screw up the suspension settings to make it twitchy.

<------- FWD, rear wheel biased. its setup to rotate in a balanced fashion, but if you upset it enough it'll make your *** pucker.

the EVO wont be seeing track time until its payed off, so i won't get to truly experience the AWD awesomeness.
