Lucky you didn't have to make any quick moves. Smooth doesn't equal
safe.

I Dunno what model Pontiac Bob's dad has, but I had a 68 GTO with some special

120 mark, then the high beam indicator, then stop on the back side of the zero
peg. The mid-size GM cars of that era enjoyed a great chassis and were quite
stable & quick with the right options.
