<VV> Mastering the cylinders (no corvair)

[Ramon Rodriguez III]

I'll tell you that stability control is DANGEROUS!!! Why you ask?  Because
my fathers 01' Eldorado has got it and every time I drive it in snow I feel
the need to slide the car around and see how well it works!!!!  Yesterday
was just such a day... it's actually pretty impressive in action.  I try to
"play" cautiously enough that I'm very unlikely to have anything bad happen,
but I make the car slide on every low speed corner (mostly under 10mph here
in our private community) and see what happens!
