Yes, it's a huge mental hurdle to overcome, to not lift off when the back steps out.

The first album I ever bought was Weird Al's "In 3D." It had one of the greatest songs of all time: "Eat It," a parody of Micheal Jackson's "Beat It."
Enjoy!

Oh those crazy engineers... This is the house of one of our Chicago Lotus club guys. He drives an Esprit, BTW.

Almost looks like the guy got a flat. After the MX-5 caught him the 2nd time, his back end seemed really loose. Either that or he started driving way above his head to stay in front of the Mazda!
