well, you see, because all the weight is in the back, i need to make the rear a bit stiffer, i have done a lot of research, and have found that VW's can oversteer quite easily. because of it's setup, the front is quite soft, and the rear is easy to stiffen. the camber compensator i'm going to equip, will get rid of the rear tires from getting camber when i lift off the gas (a swingaxle flaw) and, it stiffens it up a lot. there are a few other changes i can make too
as for the spare, keep it in. also, one person who did uphill racing in his bug, said that when he was testing it, he found having the rear 1in higher than front, made it oversteer a lot. doing the opposite adds understeer
oh, the definition of the drift you put, is more like a powerslide, a drift, is actually getting all 4 wheels sliding, just before you enter a turn. after that, you have to control the slide all the way through it. that's why just before you enter the turn, you have to get as much weight as you can shifted forward, then while doing that, do a heel toe to get the rpms up. you turn hard and make the rear break, then countersteer a bit to keep it on course. well, that's from what i know, not that i've ever done it outside of Gran Turismo 3. hahaha
