A cars balanced solution can and should include braking and turning as well as acceleration and the measure of that is the road course.

Reminds me of an old line that I used on this site to describe the difference between a muscle car and a pony car. It was something along the lines of "
A pony car is designed to handle well around a road course. A muscle car is designed to handle well enough to make another pass at the drag strip."
