A laugh on me it was. Way Way too spoiled by the FRS I am. Gonna have to continue to drive those roads, with the FRS, sometimes hitting bottom, scraping things..oh well.


And as Tcoat states...It's when the steering wheel is turned on curves, just anywhere, that the fun begins.

That's funny you mention that because I am driving a Mustang while my car is in the shop. And I just scraped for the first time in the year that I've been back. But it was on a terrible parking lot transition that any car would scrape. Windy days I can scoop redwood debree off of highway 36. Caltrans does a good job keeping the highway clear but I've had to drive over a few twigs. A couple inches isn't going to make any difference out here. If the highway ever floods or a redwood falls I have to drive a lifted diesel to get out if anything. I haven't had that happen, knock on wood. But it did make me think about a WRX for a moment.
