This really makes no sense. The current S197 chassis is very well balanced and handles great.

All relative bro.

I've personally ridden (and turned down offers to drive) in S197's around the track and while they seem to be balanced alright after several thousand in suspension mods, it's a whole different ballgame than your average sports car.

To someone experienced in driving BMW, Porsche, Japanese etc, a Mustang WOULD feel like a pig on skates, as it takes a different driving style entirely to make them move.

Not better or worse, just different.

Truth is truth. I can see from ur SN why u would try to defend it. The "bite" that is referred to the Stang is cuz the feel of it is entirely different as opposed to tuner cars and most end up spinning out a lot.
But as I said, on the flip side to an experienced Stang driver n professional drifter they seem to be awesome for drifting!

Sorry, but my SN has nothing to do with the car.
