[QUOTE="EricM, post: 1370058, member: 20286"] All solid axle vehicles have issues with bumps in curves- you simply cannot avoid it. If one side goes up, the other side HAS to go down. That steers the rear end of the vehicle. Not bad in a straight line, in a corner it's a different story. I'll never forget driving my 03 Cobra on the highway and there was Mustang GT of the same year on my tail. We were on a sweeping elevated ramp, doing about 80 MPH. When we came off the ramp, the transition to asphalt was rough as usual. The 03 Cobra has IRS and had no issue with it. Thump thump. No drama. The GT, with it's SRA, kicked the rear end out far enough for me to see his outer rear tire in my rear view mirror, it got quite squirrely. His wife was riding shotgun and she immediately turned and yelled at him- he slowed way down and I never saw them again. He'd have been fine if we were going straight, but hitting that bump at high speed while cornering exposed the weak points of the SRA setup. [/QUOTE]
