I guess when you spout off the highest skidpad number ever recorded by a magazine then they'll pull .98g. And that's YOUR undeniable fact?

The reality is most magazines who tested the thing got closer to the .9-.93 range. The .98 was an exceptional number. Exceptional in that it happened once. Once.

Regardless, any pig can pull big Gs on a skidpad. What does that mean? It has little to do with overall handling ability and it certainly isn't a measure of "cool." It's a big, heavy, ugly lump with a motor that has lots of potential. I of course can call up some undeniable facts for big and heavy but ugly should just be comon sense.
