There was a man that lived about 8 miles from me that owned Motor Vehicle Research of New England. He wrote a book called, Assassination of the Corvair.He did a lot of crash testing through the 50's and 60's.He determined that they were prone to rolling when the rear tire pressure dropped under 13 pounds,and the car was driven too fast into the corners.With most cars you can feel if you are going into a corner too fast,with the Corvair for some reason you didn't get that feedback.You felt perfectly comfortable until the second before you went over.The mans name was Andy White,he passed about 35 years ago.He hated Nader and Naders Raiders.He said Nader wanted to hire him to test for the hatchet job on the Corvair,so he bought a dozen to test,his findings were not what Nader wanted so the war was on.I had a dozen copies of his book,but I lost them when my house burned last year.
