it was clear and sunny when i drove up the mountain, but snow arrived. i steered the car home with no incident. nor did i experience any steering anomolies. i did keep my speed under 40mph which is probably wise in any car over frozen roads. i also had a passenger which may have had some affect. i'd have to do the math. more than one person has suggested weighting the front of the vehicle. maybe a molded piece of lead which sits snugly atop the spare tire. in better road conditions, the same lead disk could store under the passenger seat to compensate for driver side lean. for those of you concerned about lead poisoning, why not dawn french. or when she has funnier things to do, your choice of spice girl. was there a ballast spice? better steering is what i really really want.

Hmmm.... "Posh" Spice!... I'd take her for a ride in my Esprit any day for extra ballast. I should think that my Esprit would also improve a bit in the "looks" department... hahaha....
