Had an epiphany about my LS while on vacation

[Quik LS]

well - you need to be in the 'right' Lincolns. I am still very very comfortable with my LS at the track, it is sooooo predicable in the corners - squeeling, leaning, smoke, and can be controlled totally by throttle. My 'other' car corners much more flat, but the trade off is much more twitchiness at the edge.

I dare say the LS is easier to drift through a high-speed corner, and easy to drive since I can mash the go peddle mid-corner and use the V8 torque to pull me out at low rpms. My 'other' car is much more tricky, high rpms - making braking soooo much more important.

you forget how capable the LS is until you really push it. at the drag strip =forgetaboutit - anything with corners =better.

I think you get it! A week in a 2010 Impala made me really happy to be back in my LS!

It only took a day of a loaner Mazda 3 to do that to me.

Actually, it took me about 15 seconds of freeway driving.......

i went and test drove a 2001 camaro Z28, dark blue, black leather, t-top, ground efx kit, 81k miles. got them down to 6700$ for it. fbody's are my big part of my life, first car was a 87 trans am GTA, 2nd was a 94 Z28 6 speed. then i get the lincoln Ls. i got it for the same reason most of you got yours.

Here is the solution (and no, its not more cow bell)

GET A TOY/2ND CAR!!!

I here ya on the f-body. I owned a '91 GTA and a '96 6 speed T/A. So much power and so much aftermarket. I just met up with an old buddy to do some shooting at our local firing range. He has a 2nd "toy car", a '98 Formula 6 speed that is pushing alittle over 400 hp with his mods. That thing was sick and got me back into the f-body fever. Really easy to get into trouble with something like that, atleast the LS helps keep you honest as a daily driver.
