Yeah I understand why people say it, but it's still true that all cars have to corner quickly to produce fast lap times. Which means ALL cars need to maintain maximum momentum through corners. Which in turn means all cars are momentum cars.

And I haven't had any Miata's out corner my stock Camaro in advanced run groups so far.

I've certainly caught up to plenty of other cars though with my own "slow" but good handling cars (like the BRZs).
