    It’s the lack of camber in their front suspension setup, from what I’ve heard.

    The solid rear axle is bad when they hit a bump mid-corner and hop, but it’s the lack of camber in the front tires which makes them especially problematic in spins. It takes cat like reactions to catch a mustang, which very few people have.

    I guess the fun of spinning into a ditch or other people is part of the mustang mystique, so it never gets fixed.

      That sounds right.

      Though really its just so much power on rear wheels that does it. No suspension will save you from the torque breaking the wheels loose gunning it out of a turn.

        Yeah, stupid shit is stupid shit.

        A better front suspension setup would make the car more forgiving though. Most of it is on Ford for not fixing their setup.
