if car A is going fatser that car B around a turn will it handle the same???

not always true!
also the vets and vipers where driving the slowest around the track i was informed ! hence less body roll! ;)Originally posted by RaNGeR.GaV

Please, the viper handles like a boat.
During some open track laps at Laguna Seca, I was whomping on a viper in the turns in my GTUs.(89 RX-7) My engine has like no SC, no turbo, just pulled the AC, put in an electric fan, better exhaust, and wiring/plugs. And $2K in suspension. Viper cannot touch me around that track. He would catch up hard in the straights, then I would pull on him diving into the turns.

Hmm, $5K versus $64K, hmmmm.
Sometimes touring cars make me laugh.

From the pics you have, everyone was driving like a granny EXCEPT the granny car. What, only the Merc and the black Supra got Squirley? THe guy in the farrari also pitched it into the dirt.

Geez, I hammer my car around turns, All about drift or go home.
Couple of weekends ago they had an autocross at the cowpalace parkinglot, right after it had just rained the night before, man is that ever fun!
