So in the end, slow car isn't slow because of car. Slow car is slow, cuz of the driver.
My first review video where we track tested the stock FRS at Gingerman, I wanted to do a smart ass segment where Turbowski brought his V6 Accord Sedan on track.

We filmed it and the Accord just blew past on the mile straight but almost did not stop in the corner, after that Accord did not make it one lap before the brakes were absolutely faded out and parked so we never used the footage.

There is truth to the to the track/autox bit but of course 95% of the time these cars roll on the street, where they cant get out of their own way.

Old debate that will never die.
