As much as I hate eating at my desk, this made it a little better.

Every day is better with some Tiff.

The absolute best concept in this is the distinction between handling and roadholding/grip. It's something that I've come across numerous times reading old reviews, but seems to be completely absent from any modern reviews.

Roadholding/grip is the ultimate cornering speed a car can attain without encountering any oversteer/understeer.

Handling is how a car reacts to driver inputs: steering, brakes and throttle.

You can have a car that has utterly shocking handling, but is a lot quicker around a circuit because it's roadholding is better than another car, even if that car handles better.
