I can't comment yet .. I haven't ridden in a super bug, let alone driven one on a course of any sort.

My BJ front end bounces around corners when I take them fast .. this could be due to my worn out front shocks and 'too wide a tire for the rim' front tires.

When I get some decent front and rear shocks and proper width tire for the rim, I should have a better idea.

The Strut front suspension is definately better .. (how many modern cars have a trailing arm front suspension like a standard ?). I believe the reason many people favor the BJ front end is due to the weight of the super bug .. supers are heavier for sure and I'm not sure everyone has the budget to really lighten a super.

The ideal solution in my mind is a standard beetle (weight-wise) with an A-arm front suspension that is bolt on.

Just my thoughts.
