Hey Sentinal,

What's Ecconomic? I prefer to take political advise from people who can actually spell.

the reason why i got into the accident was because my evo doesnt turn as sharp as my last car. - i thought it did , so i hit a pole because i assumed this awd car could make a sharp turn like a fwd car.

awd turns well and sharp. the evo has a long wheelbase, which is probably why you mis-judged the pole. anyone who has driven a truck knows what I'm talking about.

I thought that you would point the wheels in the right direction and use the throttle to correct the understeer?

just curious, hawaii mitsu said that they could fix the scratch so i would never notice; did they do a good job and how long did it take; if it was a good job, maybe the same guy could fix your scratches that you have now.
