Foxes tend to be popular at the drag strip, whereas they are out of their element on most road courses...
and the VW bug in the grand tourismo game is made for street racing?

a fox... in gran turismo..... thats rich

foxes cant turn worth ****, and you want to put it in a grand touring style game?
Ummmmm..... WHAT! Foxes turn just fine, Ive raced several cars that shouldve been able to out handle mine, 911's, 300z, etc. And if foxes werent able to turn all that well, makes me wonder how Saleen won all those races in em. The first year for saleen was 85 BTW.

its not even directed towards games like grand turismo, but even games with drag strips like Forza, IHRA Drag Racing, Midnight Club, and other games that have Drag events. Lets face it they always throw in cars like challengers and chargers that arnt susposed to turn in games such as GT.

Actually foxes turn just fine. They just suck at making U turns...unless of course you break the *** end loose in the process then it U turns just fine.
