For some reason, people who drive slow cars always talk about cornering?

All the import guys think that are cars turn like trucks. Maybe I have a freak or something, but I've run my GT through the twisties faster than I did my brothers 99 Cougar v6. Yeah, the Mondeo based car that handles sweet.

Anybody else notice this phenomena? I get this a lot, "Well, you might beat me in a straight line, but I'll pass you when we have to turn."

BS in my book. My car has is stock with 16" rims, but it does have a strut brace. Maybe that explans the handling.
