Great info thanks. The Turanza's IMHO track horribly and there were times in the past that had I not had a very strong grip on the wheel I would have hit a guardrail or another car.

Consider getting another set to keep in storage for when you are ready for them. The group buy price will never be that low again.

What I mean is when the tires feel like they are stuck in a rut and you have to force them to turn (like you're driving the cars at Disneyworld for a second).
I'm not sure if it was the traction control on the X or the tires, but I was impressed that I remained straight during an agressive (read stupid) holeshot in the wet on my worn Diamaris. Although I only drove the last 6k miles on those Diamaris, I really had no ill feelings for them except in the snow.
