Glorious weather today, wall to wall sunshine and dryish roads in Staffordshire.

Went for a drive in MOG, nowhere in particular but headed up to Uttoxeter and then Ashbourne.

Now I'm very new to Morgans but as my confidence is growing, I'm pushing on a bit more and I'm starting to understand the handling characteristics slightly better.

This may sound weird but I feel that I'm missing part of my normal car handling feedback, namely body roll.

I'm already cornering as fast, if not faster than I do in my regular road cars but my brain is telling me that I should slow down because, due to the lack of body roll, it's not sure exactly how fast I am cornering and how close I am to overcoming the tyre grip. (Conti's)

The lack of body roll suggests we can corner even faster but my brain is saying hang on you're already going quicker than normal so we're going to have to find a new way to assess cornering speed because we haven't got the body roll feed back to help in the Morgan.

Does this make any sense to the more experienced and probably faster Morgan Drivers amongst you and, if you can remember that far back, is it a normal sensation when you start to drive the Morgan that you get used to in time?
