Wow, I never thought this would be so popular!
and shouldnt it be commodores are from uranus
I was considering it, but I thought there would be enough payouts flying any way
As to the rearwheel frontwheel thing, I think its a culture thing. It's what makes commodore drivers do 'Fully Sick Skids' because it is so easy, especially in VN's because of how unballanced they are, and how they were tuned (They actually de-tuned the VP becausew to many old ladies were riding of their VN's due to the responsiveness) And most of the people who buy VN's now are inexperienced P'platers who plant the foot and go wow I'm doing a fully sic skid, but don't know how to correct it (they also find it hard to see through their beanies) and when they are showing off to their friends that is when they end up killing someone.
The reason I like rear wheel drive is because the thoucht of understeer scares the hell out of me, If I'm fanging into a corner I'd perfer to loose the back and over steer, rather than understeer and go in head first (just my oppinion, feel free to comment)
The fact that commodores are so common which also means cheap is also another reason that so many scosers have them, and you only ever notice a bad commodore because all the stock ones are common they just blend into the scenery. If you want to see the worlds biggest collection of scosser commodores go to Broad Meddows, in particular Kangan Batman Tafe (I don't think they sell springs in Broadie cause no one seems to have them)
Whith two mainstreem car companies in australia and the V8 Supercar circuit and Australians passion for their favorite team, that is what makes commodore drivers so one eyed (and also ford drivers) I remember when I was a big VC driving commodore nut, seeing Lownds go to ford. I remember saying 'he should have died in that rollover he had while in HRT, atleast he would have died with dignity'. I know that was a stupid comment but you get swept up with the culture. I don't watch the V8's any more (Partly cause Holden is getting it's ass whooped!)
