I routinely take on- and off-ramps at 65mph in my Impreza, and I can
barely hear the tires chirp from time to time. Of course, the Impreza
weighs a lot less and has phenomenal AWD. All I need to do is make sure
I hit the turn-in apex right, and I can zip right through, and acclerate
on the way out.
Of course, I don't do that with the wife in the car. She's prone to
car-sickness, and the forces generated by that manouevre have been known
to cause some distress....
