I'm not sure I follow. You drove PP2, so that means you have the handling to back it all up, so hitting a turn like an on-ramp or off-ramp cloverleaf is no fun? Or twisty turns or just taking a turn well above what any "normal" car can? You were speaking only of acceleration, but do you consider other factors? Braking?
