This thread is yet another example of how people will say, "please be tolerant of
my ideas, but yours are WRONG!"  Interesting.  I have driven many high performance
cars, and driven them fast.  I beleive that it is much more likely that driver
error is to blame for the "bite".  Obviously you must adjust your technique when
you change from one car to another, so just cuz your a hotshoe in you 87tq don't
mean a 91 will feel exactly the same.  Now if the limitations that have come to
light about Audis are too much for some maybe a nice BMW would be right up you
alley, who knows.

By the way when do most people need a "controlled power on slide" in everyday
situations?  I must have missed that day in drivers education, and at the track
schools.
