Re: [DMCForum] Re: stupid driving lesson question

[Andrei Cular <andreic@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't know the tires, the little I have been able to drive my car I am 
really not impresses with the way it handles either.  But I haven't 
wanted one since I was 4 cause of its performance.  And besides steering 
the breaks are way too weak to handle the power of the 3 rotor.

Maybe I am very biased but for any kind of performance driving I like a 
Lotus or Porsche, they seem to have the best balance.  Like a Porsche 
add once said " We lose half our competition on acceleration, and the 
other half in breaking."
