Yeah one of you guys go ahead and engineer that, once it's done and bulletproof. I'll buy one.

Maybe another thing we can do is make a teleportation device and add it to our cars LOL

Car felt fine. Going 170+ in any car would be considered dangerous to most right?

one thing to remember is that these cars are also not bulletproof. Have you ever heard or seen a video or picture of one of these cars breaking or even a negative post about an owner saying some about UGR?

Didn't think so.

Their AWD... and at that power level traction and gearing are king.

All everyone can do is speculate...
A front end that high up takes almost all your steering ability away. The front tires are very light on the pavement if you needed to steer for some reason.

I would do 150-170 every week and my front end is planted to the ground. Doesn't come up at all.

Fix it........you'll be glad you did. Don't be a hero.
