[DML] Re: Fw: Houston suspension review

["turbodelorean" <dmcfan@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yeah I am going to have to raise the big BS flag on this one. 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???

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. (Jacksonville to Orlando , 147 miles in traffic in 90 
minutes , you do the math!)
