I did not see anything like that (other than TH). Generally everyone seemed to like the handling.

Also... the Throttle House video was not at Monticello. With all the uncertainty around the suspension changes I wonder when they filmed it and if the car they had was the same spec as the ones all the other reviewers used at Monticello.
