In my old 240, I think I smoked a dump truck once...but, he might not have known we were racing :-)

More seriously though, my old and current 240 had the full IPD suspension. Exit ramps were the mot entertaining. Very often there would be someone on my tail...I enjoyed seeing the look of sheer terror on their face when they realized that they could not navigate the turn with me.

After a few people almost went clear off the road, I found myself purposely slowing down just to protect the person behind me. They just don't understand how well these Volvos can handle when upgraded.
