Re: [DML] Springs and Schocks and Autocross.



I will not add to this argument about what car will outhandle what, but I
want to note a correction in this post. Depending on what Audi TT you get,
it can either be Quattro (4 wheel drive) or Front wheel drive. Whoever has
driven in a 4 - wheel drive sports car on the list can probably comment on
how awesome it is. This is a factor that can play a big PART in handling,
trust me. My Dad's car is an Audi S4, best car I have ever driven in terms
of handling and acceleration, it has 4 - wheel drive.
