Come on guys... in the good ol' USA we have no corners. Our cars are designed to take off fast on a straight line. Brakes, what is that for? That is some crap to slow you down :D

Have you ever watched the old model Mustang go down a drag strip? Axle tramp in the burnout box is attrocious, I'm surprised the axles stay attached to the chassis....

Plenty of under skilled drivers are taking control of powerful cars , the ability of the driver is paramount

I liked your post, it was very accurate. It would have been even more appropriate if either of your currently nominated drives had been in the "powerful" category (LOL).

Guys, was a sarcasm on the general notion that US cars cannot handle worth a damn.

Now come on, don't sell yourself short like that. From what I hear, that ol' Chevy SS that recently went out of production went around corners just fine ;)
