EDC is your car neutral at the limit? That's what I'm looking for...

Mine is a road car only. I am no racing driver but would say I am fairly competent. I would describe the handling as neutral to rear led. I'm not worried about the front end washing out unless I go too fast into a hairpin type corner, how many of those do you see every day? The rear keeps it interesting though and at first it took a short while to adjust to the need to keep your foot in as it all books up so much better when on the throttle.

I have no idea what roads are like where you are but I do most of my driving on what are known as B roads which are typically narrow, twisty and a bit bumpy. The steering reacts even quicker than it used to and doesn't track the road cambers too much.

Woodsman,

Toe plates: The only issue with making some or using these? No way to get the thrust angle correct (think dog tracking)
