Street tires nonetheless.
Nope, haven't found it yet....
Yeah, working it!

A pic I took the other year..
and if you look closely at this pic you will notice 2 are up (barely)
Btw, dont you love the cornerworkers pointing and staring in the mustang pic? 
I think that GTi has leaned a little too far in the past, hence the doors are somewhat re-designed

It is owned by a friend, a lady slid into it in the snow IIRC (non-racing damage)
the mustang is all suspension movement, did it both ways in the slaloms and the doors opened and closed like new (it was <2 years old when that pic was taken) after its runs.

I think that's me pointing.
EDIT - nevermind... I was one station further.
This thread is awesome. More pixorz!
This page has an interesting description of the handling that leads to the 'wheel off the ground' phenomenon (and some more pictures).

Disturbing, oh so disturbing.
Buncha sissies. Only reason this guy got off the gas was lack of drive traction made the engine rev way high.

You can hear me blathering in the background. 
I can't find it right now, but there's a guy i know in PacNW that runs his celica, and there's pics of him doglegging easily 2 feet off the ground. Ridiculous car.
EDIT: Found one.
And here's a video.
You'll like the next installment of the Berkeley project.
I wish I still had the pictures from when I ran my 86 Buick Century (The motor wasn't done for my old miata yet and I already paid and registered). It looks like the corner of my front bumper is going to scrape. On 185/70/14 all seasons no less!
The super slow three speed auto and fuel starvation made it hilarious to run. Brake, turn in, apply throttle, wait, wait, wait, downshift to first finally, wait, wait, WOOOHOOO 92 hp OMGZ!!! It got to the point where I was left foot braking and flooring it before I turned into a corner so I'd have power on the exit lolz.
Me on three, as always.
