    What was the problem with that one car on Racelands at a techday last year? Busted hub, missing bolts? I remember the wheel had a TON of play. The owner said something like, "yeah, I've been driving on that for a few months now. Is that bad?"

    We all just looked at each other and walked away.

    Sure does...
    I never said anything about "better". I compared body roll and ride. I don't understand the reaction to my observation. One car was a 240, the others were Miatas. I noted that.
