    At high speeds, yes, of course they are. You can throw a performance car round a corner at X mph and it'll stick like glue to the road, do the same in a 'normal' car and you'll find yourself being glued back together in A&E.

    You can throw a normal car round a bend at X mph and it will stuck like glue. It's only when you exceed X you have a problem.

    Most cars will actually do more than you think they will.

    I'd say you would get a Fiat Panda round better than an early tail happy 911.

    Have you heard of a bedroom?


    Edit: Sorry, forgot this is a Corsa. If I was having sex with kids I'd probably do it in my car too, wouldn't want my parents finding out and all that.

    I'd hope you'd be caught sent down and put on the sex offenders register for life.

    So driver skill has nothing to do with it then?

    Have you seen the gumball rally crashes and the like?
