I can tell by your video that you were new to the whole thing but you did great though, especially since you are use to RWD. I highly think if you push it, you'll get that 50 flat; just takes practice which you are doing.

I am wondering how your Ion's stock suspension is setup. I wondering if it is set up like mines where my tailside feels like its ready to slip on me any moment when I make a hard turn at a high rate of speed. Thanks Ford for the oversteer settings on my hatch.

Neo, it's FWD. If you want to tail to step out and start causing Understeer simply turn in and lift off the throttle. Then watch as the wall gets closer and closer.

Hmm...well I guess you can tinker with it later then, as long as you get use to it.
