I was there the day she realized this was necessary. Needless to say we didn't finish the run after lunch. |

It'd be nice to understand why a bigger or smaller sway bar causes more or less understeer, or why/when would you want to stiffen the front or rear of your car, etc. etc. |
What books do you recommend? |

| I ussually go pretty fast down mountain and brake pretty late, I ALWAYS go slower around blind turns and always slow down when I see another car or bike.
Hopefully if a bike had been coming you would have seen them and braked earlier. Don't beat yourself up over it, nothing happened. |
