I only brought in the video game comparison because it is was the easiest way to paint the picture of comparing the difference in driving dynamics.

To each his own, though. Some people enjoy drifting the car more than they do trying to make fast lap times. Some people enjoy straight line accel. Neither option is wrong, just different. And some people enjoy doing all 3 (like me)
