Those TW VRX AWD's handle pretty good up and down windy hills....

Brett, Patto, and I went for a little cruise on saturday up past Beexhworth and up the Gap between Bright and Mt.Beauty. I am talking about corners that are recomended to be taken at anywhere between 20 and 65 KM\H. Brett(in his VRX) beat me to the top by about 10 seconds while i beat Patto(in his new XR6 manual) by about 30 seconds.... I have a TF Manual. The Magnas clearly out performed the Ford and the VRX has the advantage of AWD. And we werent taking it easy.

Wouldn't driver skill also play a part?
Any of the vehicles have power/handling mods?

Well the VRX and My car have high flowed TBs, i have a CAI. Other than that everything standard.... Apart from exhausts.... but the XR6 still has alot more power than both cars...
