jock it was the case with Evo8 which was said to not feel naturally, Evo IX is supposed to be better in this. Certainly we were able to be VERY sideways in it with lots of opposite lock. Nearly crashed when bloody Skoda nearly stopped mid-corner and we were going behind it, it's hard to brake when you'r sideways
I still wait to have my drive in Evo. Only ever been passenger in Evo V and IX. Never driven one :-(
