Buggy spring car drives a little loosy-goosy compared to a coilover car however sharp in steering.
Coilover car is a much more precise handling and a slight harder, a more firm sports car ride.

Your ERA FIA would be more like a 427 car as its a coilover car. As discussed 350-400hp is plenty for these light cars, more power = more talent especially to keep it on the road.
Think it was Anglis that said a 289 is carzy fast but tamed and the 427 will bite.....
