Default Track junkies.. have any of you tried to run without power steering?

I never had power steering in the AE86 and at 1st it was hard to get use to..

But 2 weeks ago at Streets of Willow I surprised at how much feedback a powerless steering gives me. I can feel the back end biting as I end a drift. Car control and bone-head maneuver are much easier now.

Default I took mine on a 110 mile round trip with no power steering, in fact, no fan belt.

A bitch to park, but otherwise, felt normal on the road.
