3 wheel rid'in RS
I've owned my fair share of exotics and cars that where much lower than my .1 rs. Yesterday I pulled into a parking lot with the front lift up and my front wheel came off the ground about 1'. Ive never had this happen before, then again this morning backing out of my driveway it did the same. Dosent seem to be an issue and its actually quite impressive but what about these causes this?
As a side note pulling into the house bumpin' snoop dogg does feel a lot cooler now...

The anti-roll bars cause this specifically.
When one side is in compression, gravity alone is not strong enough to pull the other side into full droop against the anti-roll bar. The bar attempts to keep both sides at the same height. The stiffer it is, the more you get this result.

Has nothing to do with Sport mode. All stiff 911's do this (including my 1973 model which definitely does not have PASM)...

I only use Sport Chassis mode at the track, but feel free to use whatever setting you prefer. Sport Chassis mode only controls the damping of the shocks - the ride height, stiffness of the springs, and stiffness of the swaybars is unaffected by the button (which is what causes the tripod effect).

The limited drop in the suspension on the airborne side is only because the opposite side is compressed and the swaybars connect the two sides. When the car is on a lift (swaybars only act when the two sides have a differential force), the drop in the suspension is pretty normal...

Yeah, I guess one would have to say that a tornsionally stiff chassis, in conjunction with stiff anti-roll bar, is what does it.
After all, if the whole chassis just twisted in the middle, both sides could touch regardless of the anti-roll bar.
So it's a product of both.

Checked my wife's service manual... does not contain any. You know how sometimes you get instructions for something, and they're obviously translated from some Asian language, and very poorly? My wife's is like that. It's very frustrating.
And none of the dealers around here are willing to work on her.
