Car handles really well, especially on higher speed tracks.
The key to making the spread from front to rear on the tire/wheel sizes work is in the spring and sway bar settings.
I run a relatively soft 550lb spring in the front and 750lb spring in the rear. This setup allows the rear to slip more and rotate better with no pushing (understeer) of the smaller fronts. The rear weltmeister bar is set soft and the front is a bit stiffer. This way I can dial in more rear sway bar if the front starts to go. Push is slow, loose is scary but fast!
Works for me.

Neal, you and Chris should meet up for a east west GTG for two super fast 951 track cars 
Chris, feel free to post some updated pics, can't wait to see an even faster car at the track.

IIRC This car was actually an ex-Turbo Cup that had been wrecked and rebuilt. But I might be mistaken on that fact, it's been a few years since I talked to the owner.
