I would avoid doing any real handling tests.. with a stiff front that is lowered and a soft rear up in the air, you are set up for oversteer if you go into a corner too fast.

You should be good for a bit. Rember that its lowered tho so take it easy over speedbumbs and $hit like that.

Then you do not know how to drive. I can swing the arse end of my car around with no problem at all. Trust me, I go through rear brakes and tyres before I go through fronts.
