    If you spend enough time on road courses, you find out that's unfortunately all too typical for too many corvette and Porsche drivers. Hammer down in the straights, crawl through the corners.

    True; I have seen some though going all out. I had an instructor last year in a Z06 that drove it very hard; it was a fun ride with him!

    Oh, there's no doubt about that, in fact at any given day, a lot of the fastest drivers will be in Porsches and Vettes. But during those same days, the guys who will drive you the most crazy with holding you up in corners will be driving the same makes.
