Hey Val. I already have a lot of respect for you guys. In fact I would call it a healthy respect. I completely understand the Vette spankings you can put on. The pitch rotation with the engine hanging behind the rear tires has got to be near perfect for hard launches. My car is 51/49 weight split front to rear and launches nice. If I apply the same mind set I do to your VW, I'd be worried about the bumper dragging! Is it hard to make the car go straight on a hard launch with the front end being so light?
