I am not sure who you are because you did not sign your email but obviously you are not a very experienced driver! Do you have the Eibach springs or just some hack sawed down ones with the wrong coil rate?

I don't care what you do to the DeLorean as far as suspension goes you will NEVER get the DeLorean to perform on a track like a GT3, Carrera, or Viper. I have a set of lowered springs on my DeLorean and yes it makes a world of difference as to how the car handles but to say it drives just as good as those three cars is crazy. My other car is a S2000 and that thing has proven to stay with those cars on a track and my DeLorean doesn't even come close to how the S2000 handles. You pick the track and I would gladly bring my S2000 and $1000 and show you you are completely off as to say the DeLorean handles better. I will even stay in 4th gear the whole time how about that??? --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, "Cecil Longwisch" <dmc1982@m<mailto:dmc1982@m>...> wrote: > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Cecil Longwisch<mailto:dmc1982@m<mailto:dmc1982@m>...> > To: dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>> > Sent: Wednesday, February 16, 2005 10:27 PM > Subject: Houston suspension review > > > I just want to tell the group that for the first time last weekend I had an opportunity to "try out" the Houston Eibach springs and shocks. Running with a new Porsche GT3 ,Turbo Carrera, and a supercharged Viper ... going to a show in Orlando, although I could not keep up with them on the straight a ways, I did corner as well as the Porsche and probably better than the Viper on the ramps. I sure wanted the 140 mph speedometer as I had no idea how fast we were going.
