I'm thinking it's because Spits' handling sux and it's built in.

That swing axle in stock form was a nightmare. Can the word "handling" even be used if the car only behaves <35 mph?

Wasn't really an issue most of the time however. When the stub axles weren't twisting off, the Lucas was making sure the car sat in the driveway more than being driven.
