Re: [DML] Rear Engined Porsche 911 w/ Flexible Steering Coupling

Perhaps the Porsche engineers would have liked to do away with the flex coupling but the steering wasn't sufficiently damped without it. 

You're trying to fix a "flaw" that simply doesn't exist!

FWIW: Rear engined Porsche 911's have flexible steering couplings in their steering columns (Part #18 in this diagram): http://www.autoatlanta.com/porsche-parts/911-87-89/403-00.php

Speaking for myslelf, if my DeLorean handles like a Porsche 911, I won't complain.
