I have to concur with the floating feeling. In my spit there is a GT6
drivetrain and is finally running the best ever. 

I had to go to northern Toronto this morning and this meant getting on the
401 (a major cdn highway). I was travelling comfortably at 120kph (70mph)
when a couple of transport trucks decided they wanted to get friendly.
Needless to say I wanted no part of that and gunned it.  Before I knew it I
was doing 160kph(100mph) and on just about every bump she felt like she was
taking air underneath and "floating". 

Not a good feeling :-P
