Uneven roads, high speeds and stability
Dear all,
I have noticed this multiple time on highways - say you are going high speeds and you hit either a bump or uneven surface and suddenly the rear feels twitchy like very mild fish tail (I suspect TC controls it).
Is that normal due to stiff suspension (car goes mildly airborne, hence rear wheel/wheels lose grip)?
Thanks,

I have test driven an F-Type R and felt the same thing when the road got uneven. It felt like it rolled side-to-side a little bit before settling back down (all within in a microsecond, I suppose).
I have a Jag XK and it reacts very similarly when not on really nice smooth roads. I also have a Porsche and it basically "sticks" to the road like it has glue on the tires! I will be honest and admit that the Porsche is a much better handling car, but it can almost be boring at times.
I usually grab the Jag keys when the weather is good over the Porsche! Besides the jag just looks and sounds soooo cool.
