Like DivineRange, he has spent much time coming to conclusions on how cars would perform around a track, based on their performance figures and the level of computer assistance they provide. This is all without actually ever setting foot in the cabin of said cars. However, he's a car guy, so he knows these things.
I really don't think the list is all that bad, what I can say is that the few cars on the list I have driven really are fun. Especially #51 on a snow covered trail up in Big Bear, most fun I have had behind the wheel and the closest I came to killing myself in a car at the same time...
The list is the laughting stock because: 1. Mclaren F1 is not in top ten. 2. Ferrari 430 Scuderia is not in top ten. 3. Ranking of last MR2(ZZW30) higher than the earliest MR2 (AW11)
I dunno about the Scud or the MR2 and I haven't driven any of these, but the F1 supposedly had vague steering feel from the front end.
Vague steering, twitchiness and lots of body roll. That engine would overrule everything though, so you could forgive it. Still one of the most brilliant cars ever made.
