When I first started autocrossing mine there was a guy here that basically told me that the Crossfire wouldn't be any good at autocrossing. He sited several things that he said would hold it back.... visability from the driver's seat was one and no rack and pinion steering were the most prevelant problems, in his eyes....... I've never had any problems and have posted several times about how much fun and how good this car is on an autocross track.

Thanks for posting this andrew.... You made my month and it's only the 2nd day!!! :lol: :lol:

It's nice to see a review that has found in this car what I have found.
