Ultimate Handling In A Bug

hi,

how would you go about getting ultimate handling in a bug....

got ball joint front end IRS rear and sway away anti roll bar front and rear so far....

The sky is the limit, currently, i'm on that path...Check out volkdent's front end and my rear end (he he)...

Jason's is fully custom and mine is from a 98' 911 (993) turbo.

You can do a vw style suspension setup and get around .95 g's on the skid pad...not to shabby since the new ferrari f430 does a .92, but thats italian luxury trash right?

Try something new...all of us here like seeing innovations, not imatations.
