Odd as it seems the Corvair behaved as though it was
_overpowered_ for the weight of the car. All of the 'feedback'
you got while driving it was identical to what most overpowered
vehicles feel like with the exception of the Charger 440s. They
just felt like one solid chunk of iron gone insane. ;-)
