That's great to hear on the autox. I've yet to race my 97 SC2 to see how it compares to the 91 MR2 I had. The cars are so different it's going to be hard to really compare them. The Saturn has things I like better about it and the MR2 had things I liked better about it. The MR2 will no doubt be a better handeling car in stock form simply because of it's design. The SC2 does make me a little more nervous driving it through the corners. Doesn't feel as stuck, but at the same time I don't worry about oversteer like I did with the MR2. Very nasty little quality the MR2 had. I spun mine more than I care to mention.
I'm looking forward to doing some work to the SC2. Gotta get the HP up a little. Just a little shy of what I'd like to have for a daily driver. Dale I like my Saturn more each day. --- Russell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > updates: > > My friend traded in his mr2 spyder lease and got a > new 2002 sc2. got 0% > finance with the dealer installed mods rolled into > the payment. > > I got 3rd out of 10 at autocross for a trophy in > STS. > > just happy news, no negatives. > > 95sc2 > Russell > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Dale adkins" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Saturday, April 20, 2002 6:52 PM > Subject: RE: [SPOC] MY REPLY > > > > Hi, > > > > Just had to make a comment on this.
