MkI 16v handling

[amalventano at sc.rr.com (Allyn)]

my guess - springs arent stiff enough. as weight shifts to the rear (due to
your acceleration), the front end rises.
larry mentioned struts... if the front end stays too high the entire time
you are accelerating, its springs. if instead it 'launches' upwards when you
start accelerating, but then settles back to where it should be (while still
accelerating), its struts.
