I think that's what he's saying... and... it death wobbled all the way to the office.
The rotton frame and loose suspension set up a tuned harmonic that cancel each other out at speed.

Its a jeep thing... you wouldnt understand.

and i would go to spartanburg to take the tour of the bmw plant and wish i could get on the test track
Been on the onraod track twice in m3's, for high school trips of all things. The drivers r nuts, and do not care how many cars they tear up in one day. Would love to go for a ride again myself.
