Questions about VDC..

IDZRVIT

I find these VDC threads so amusing. My brother-in-law and I were just reminiscing about the old days i.e. muscle car era, a few days ago. He recalled when he walked into a dealership when he was 20 looking for something with some power. He started to look at a Roadrunner. It was a hemi. He passed on it because it had standard steel wheels with hub caps, a bench seat, and auto. Oh, I forgot to mention, it didn't have VDC, abs, launch control, PS, PB, 4 wheel disc brakes, TPMS, etc. However, it would do the 1/4 mile in the 13's with stock tires that were half the width of the front tires on a base Z. He ended up buying a '69 Z-28. It had bucket seats! He drove it year round in Toronto with bias ply tires. Never put a dent in it nor his other cars later on - '67 Z-28 and '72 240Z. Moral of the story? If you know how to drive, you don't need no VDC.
