Laguna Seca Lap Times from MT

[EightySix Four]

The test ranked the cars based on handling. The better handling cars placed higher regardless of what the numbers said.

I believe that handling and feel are one in the same. They can't really be measured.




You're confusing C&D with MT on the BMW bias. Besides, since they appointed Randy Pobst to drive all of the cars and give his comments on them, I don't think their opinions were weighted as heavily, but who knows.



Subjective based on one driver. That levels the field and allows the cars to be ranked against each other.

Like I said before, the numbers have little bearing on what they ranked the cars on.

Fail.

This is all I can think of as you talk about this single tester trying cars out.

Sky/Solstice FTW, same motor with rear wheel drive and better weight distribution

And terrible to drive

It's blocked for me at work. What's it about?

It's the Penn and Teller episode where they have people come in and taste test high end expensive wines and foods and get their reactions on hidden cameras, but the food is actually from TV tray dinners and the wine is ~$5. Subjective testing at its best.

People's opinions can't be trusted, legitimately tested data can be.

lol I love you guys. A car that has better handling numbers handles worse.
