... Well said, and let me insert a "me too". I don't, and never have, cared
if I'm wrong. Geez o petes guys, do post up the how and the why. Right now
we have some awesome information on the DGJFD, one by the very one that
proposes it's smartness.
Let's stop the 'subjective', cuz that's been done. The non eventsters have
really *not* explained how Jeff and I and chocholek and Zexel have such a
common conclusion of said device. Explain it to me, I'm an idiot. All I know
is that I've been chomped in the back side more times with this "anticipator"
than I car to count. And tho I haven't driven a torsen Urq, the device is the
same. And I find it amazing that I can get the device to fool in every single
audi chassis except the RS2 and the Urq.
I'm laughing at the non-eventsters, cuz what I have learned at 4 years at
steamboat, is that the last few sentences of Dave's quoted Zexel paper, negate
all the conclusions set forth. As cf lowers, everything changes. Don't
believe me? You don't have to. Accept my invitation to the wildest
spiderfest in the USA. The conditions are great for a comparo, and we can
eliminate so many variables with a lap time.
Hope to see you there. If you do just ONE quattro event a year, this is the
ticket. The rest is cybertyping from a well worn office chair. I promise all
rides will be with both hands on the wheel.
