Message	Now, if you were heading into a long sweeping turn at 100+ mph and the rear wheels started steering on their own you would start to feel a bit uncomfortable. Drivers like to know what their car is doing at all times, they dont want to have to work against what the car is doing in order to correct. HICAS is a great little feature for the street but on a track its more trouble than its worth. Another enemy to the Z is weight. All that extra poundage shifting around hurts the handling. Shave off 500lbs and the Z would be a great car to track. John Yim (Houston) 91 ZTT Stage...stages are confusing.
