It's unique for sure. I didn't see the runs at El Mirgae but you know John
how quick they can get away from you. I'm sure Chet's put a lot of design
time into it. My thoughts is a little wiggle can be easily over correceted
and get the back end hard to bring back even with limited steering input. It
will be interesting to see it run if SCTA agrees to it.
