calling a solo event held in a parking lot a track event is a stretch. its pretty cool when you put words in peoples mouths. i think that streets is way more technical than big willow. i think that streets is a technical track. thats all. i could just as easily use this stupid tactic on your post and say that car and driver tested a miata and bentley on an auto x and the bently won. that has to be the best handling car. do you see how that reasoning sounds coming from the other end?
just like power doesn not equate to fun, neither does handling.

My ridiculously-opposite argument was meant to bring to light the ridiculousness of your own argument, and it worked perfectly. Thanks for acknowledging that.
The best test of handling is on a very small track like AutoX, etc. The best test of power/speed is a drag race. Everything else is a compromise of the two. However, No single lap time in ANY of these events determines the FEEL or PREFERENCE that the driver will experience. That was the only point I made in my post. Which is why a lot of us are listening to the *words* and opinions about the feel from the drivers of the car, rather than the lap time comparos.
Sure, some will want more power. Some will want better springs. But you can't deny that for those that are looking for a pure-feel, great-handling car, this review is a solid WIN.
