Why are dsm turning radiuses so crappy

[IMMORTALSPYDER]

Just wondering why our dsm sports cars turning radiuses remind me of my mom's suv. All my other cars have turned way sharper.

Wow, someone else that notices this too..everytime I turn around on a single lane street, it never fails me..I have to use reverse..usually more than once...course that could be my crappy driving skills too

I think AWD DSMs would be better if they put All Wheel Drive Steering.

Amen brother. I don't even bother pulling u-turns unless they're two lane. Too many close calls

Apparently AWS is a bit of a bother, just that much more stuff. Yeah, the turning circle's hideous. Part of the cost of having a real suspension instead of just effing McFearsome struts, and FWD (even on AWD, same chassis at the nose). Still and all, a small price to pay.

i agree! i was trying to get my car out of the parking garage and it should have easily made it backing up only once, in any other car that is, but noooooo i had to go in reverse atleast 3 times!! oh well, i got to drive it for the first time since november!! so i guess it was worth it :laugh:

AWS on Dodgestealths and 3000gts only activates at high speeds, its intresting, when going 80, swerve the wheel back and forth, freaky weird stuff, the whole car rocks liek a crazy wave

my 93 GS turns realy sharp. hehe 2 lane, no reversse

Turn the wheel a good ways, rev, then drop the clutch. That should get you going the other way quickly.

I wouldnt ever do it my car but it might be fun to try.

yeah, wouldn't it be great if they started teaching drifting in drivers ed. :laugh:

every heard of a e-brake, use it!
I've pulled a 180 (never stopping) in my 2gnt in a very small back road 1 lane each side and then revved and dumped the clutch and rolled dem tires and had one of my best launches ever with that car, it was slow with no turbo but damn, i could road rally that car all over the place, what a dream handling car that was!

I'm not sure which to request first, coherence or punctuation.
