If I still had my old old Midget, I would go the way of the 'netter' above
(it's Mike I'd guess!). I've driven in the above car, and its handles
superbly. The extra bumps and rattles didn't really bother me as I like
a nice stiff ride. That car corners like there is no tomorrow! When Mike
let me drive I was scared to put my foot on the gas and was still taking
90 bends at speeds I wouldn't dream of.
My vote is for 7/8 front and 5/8 rear.
