Just pointing out the fact people overlook obvious things like handling one
power comes into the equation........
But, I do have to argue that a turbo car can't go as well out of a corner
as a NA car. Having driven an RX7tt a few times I find it rock out of
corners every bit as well as the Camaro, if not better in a lot of cases.
And I don't even left foot brake! It's all in how you work the turbo. I
also own a turbo that I autoxed for two years prior to the Camaro. Lag was
not a big issue there either. And in SP when you can add bypass vavles
etc. I don't buy the lag argument. pony car guys can't instantly go
either believe it or not.
