2. Is your auto to be setup conventionally with throttle actuated kickdown? Even with quite low powered cars, a mid corner change down that might not have been fully expected can easily unsettle the rear end (of the car). And then you're at high speed in reverse. Or getting giddy.
3. Are you really in China?

Cheers,
Glen
Glen, been here for over twenty years building and ramping up factories for whoever wants to have a footprint here.

I will certainly comment on the power factor when I finally get my car and will find out if the auto transmission does or does not do an autodownshift.

Cheers, John, AKA, tin-man
