Help me slide my Scirocco better...

[sfwilliams@comcast.net (Scott F. Williams)]

Allyn, if Mark wants the rear of the car to slide more, he'd want *more*
rear bias. That is, he'd want the rear to lock up sooner or with less brake
pedal effort. Still, and I say again, that the stock set up is ideally tuned
for LFB. Give it some gas and then hit the brakes so as to remove say... 95%
of the motive force. The rear end will step out immediately on snow.

sounds like you want less bias in the rear. change out the proportioning
valves :)
