Save yourself the pain, agony, embarrassment and cash of trying to make it do what it's not designed to do...

Sell it NOW and get the 'stang, EVO, WRX of your choice and live HAPPY!

Excellent, I would only add that straight line speed, although fun, isn't nearly as fun as a car that will make some dickhead tailing you in an on ramp, see just how stupid his decision was..

Even more fun on our mostly 270 degree, decreasing radius off ramps!!

As for the second part of your question -- learning to drive the car without doing something stupid -- register for a DE or Autocross with your local PCA chapter. You will get top-notch instruction at an unbeatable price.

Just noticed you are in Texas. Where? Maverick Region (DFW) has a DE on March 6 and Autocross 101 is on March 14. http://mav.pca.org/Events/Calendar.asp
