That's GARBAGE. Only people who have zero clue as to what "handling" means would say that.
A car that handles well on the street should handle the track well, and vice versa. A car that can't "handle" track duties will drive like sh*t on the street, period. There's no magical car that handles great on the street, but can't handle a turn at speed on track.
This is the most asinine thing I've ever heard on here. Different standards for street and track handling? People who don't take their car on the track therefore HANDLING doesn't matter to them because it's only used for the streets?
Might as well all buy and drive Priuses.
