Here are some pics from an autocross at the Boeing plant in Everett, Washington last summer. The car lifts the inside tire about 6 in off the ground. I attribute it to the aussie bar, konis, and Falken Azenis tires...with stock springs.

The car is actually really neutral and has drop throttle oversteer, perfect for autocross. People are always surprised to see a contour lifting its wheel.

Todd...I'll be here for the Rally, wouldn't miss it. are you going to be able to make it??? And for those who don't know, the area around Houghton, MI has some great driving roads. It also hosts one of the best rallies on the ProRally circuit...Oct. 17-18 this year, its a blast to watch.
