Who said 911's "don't handle"?

Well anywho I can't vouch for those who don't understand the layout of such a car & don't have the willingness to learn how to drive it.

The AC Cobra was known as a widow maker too and the engine was in the front. Why was it so dangerous? Because it's lightweight, RWD, but moreover the torque would be the root cause imo; the generic rich guy that bought one hasn't got a clue about how such loadings build up.

would have thought more people have died in evos and scoobys then 911's and cobra's but there meant to be some of the best handling cars about, 99% of car crashes do i dare say are from people driving beyond there ability's, be it in bad weather conditions or other wise

The 911 Turbo is 4WD and actually not too bad. It's the GT2 is the "widow maker", as its 450bhp and RWD (996 form) and 500bhp+ rwd in 997 form. EPIC!!

Every days a school day so they say.

the cobra also had basically a prewar ladder chassis, and tyres in the early 60's were awful compared to the modern stuff...

there is a story about jim clark winning 4 f1 races with one set of tyres, the wear rates & grip were that bad, and most cars suffered high speed lift.
