For those of you with active steering.

1) Find a wide open empty parking lot like area
2) Turn the steering wheel some amount - maybe 45 degrees?
3) Go 10mph(or kph) around in a circle
4) Without moving the steering wheel...

...Can you vary the diameter of your circle by accelerating to 20mph(kph)? or 30?

Just curious...

I have not tried it yet. Interesting story about active steering though...

I was on vacation for 7 days and rented an XJ8. Missed the active steering on my 545 but got used to driving the jag after a few days. Got back yesterday and oversteered the 545, hit a curb and scratched a wheel. I guess the active steering takes some getting used to....
