Oh?
Is this because you've gone on drives with many of the sports car clubs out there on a winding country road at "driving miss daisy" pace?

Or is it just rare that there are guys with Corvettes, Ford GT's, Viper's, Ferrari's, Lamborghini's, Mustangs, Camaro's, Murkers, Sierra Cosworth's, Golf GTi's, R32's, S4's, RS4's, RS6's, R8's, M3's, M5's......... etc. etc. etc. etc. .... that they appreciate corners?

Really?

That must be why Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche sell more cars in the USA than all their other world markets combined.

The only thing missing in this unoriginal and untrue post is the left turn NASCAR jab.


Anyway, Leno and Clarkson are both funny to me but in different ways. Leno is a smart fellow and has quite a few reservations as he should. This Jalopnik post was interesting.
