Yes. "False" oversteer is insanely cool and exciting.

"Hey terrance, Lets have the rear wheels follow whatever path the grip takes them regardless of driver input"

"What a wonderful idea bob"

Well, maybe you should just get a Honduh? I hear those HF Civics were really cool back in the '80's.

Maybe you should stop being gay, spend $40 and about an hour or so of your time and get rid of the system.

Are you saying you prefer this system? You sound like you are defending it.

"False oversteer?"

Are you kidding me? I couldn't get my 1986 GXL to oversteer to save it's life.
My 1985 GSL, on the other hand...

Solid rear axle FTW.

No, I was not defending the DTSS. I am quite capable of discussing DTSS and have done so many times on this board.

I am mocking you for spending a grand total of 3 weeks on this board and then coming onto the Tech section with your 'I'm a Big Boy now' cussin 'n' spittin' criticism of a 1980's suspension design that is apparently beyond your understanding.

If you don't like the DTSS, take it off. Many members on the club do. Others don't. If the mere concept of DTSS offends you so much, go buy a mid '80's honduh and revel in that technology.

DTSS reduces snap oversteer during in turn lift off. But you have a 4 lug N/A (sorry, "race car") so you must know that...
