plus with the problems i'm having with my engine and stuff i'm trying to keep the revs below 3k, which is like 75mph for me. so, 100 would be 4k, which i won't do. the reason the turn feels effortless is just because you're on adrenaline, not because the speed helps the car. this is just a nose heavy FWD family car. there is no downforce or anything to stabilize the car at high speeds...... only cars i know of that handle better the faster you go are F1 cars, because the wings create more downforce the faster you go.
im not saying the car performs better at top speeds cuz of downforce or anything like that what im saying is that when u drive any car at that speed u personally will be a better driver at normal speeds in that same car regardless of what that car is.........the car doesn't drive better u are just able to predict how the car reacts better u know when to accelrate and deccelrate when going in or coming out of a turn.......... u said u go to the track so take it to an open road course and see how fast you can go around the corners what im sayin is that after that just driving around normal streets will seem waaay easier.....sometimes learning to drive better is the best mod u can get for a car

and dont hate the fwd so much they invented it for uneven dirty wet hilly roads not race courses...on normal streets fwd outperforms rwd even allows more horsepower to the wheels and one thing that will never happen is the fwd will fishtail out of control.... id never do what i did with a rwd or awd car just because i can always feel those back tires start to slide out underneath me but in the maxima u can just feel it grip into the road almost like the front tires have claws in em
