Yes, in fact....if you have a hi-resolution version of that image, please email it to me (tom at crvownersclub.com) and I'll try to incorporate it into part of our new site design that has rotating images of club member photos.

Thanks for sharing!

I love that piture, DMC RRT. Fantastic.

Is your V an Canadian SE? With side steps, roof rack and EX wheels but no privacy glass? I'm just playing detective. :D

Hello. I found a website for you explaining VSA. All I can tell you is that when I have gone into a sideways drift on the ice or snow, it takes over and corrects the steering and the skid. Makes driving in the winter "almost" idot proof. Here's a good link I found <http://www.sae.org/automag/toptech/1298t07.htm>

Here is the Honda VSA (Vehicle Stability Assist with Traction Control) description. It isn't a direct link, so find the VSA link at the middle right and click on it.

Personally, I like being able to not have the car "help" me. Winter is the only time one can legally drive sideways!

VSA will cut throttle and apply appropriate braking to correct the skid before it gets out of control, it works quite well, i've tried applying the throttle when turning a corner on snow-covered roads and couldnt get it to fishtail at all....thankfully theres a switch to disable it for when you want to have fun:)
