Indeed. I had a similar experience in my Mini- BMC MInis can go around any corner at any speed and not fall off the road. Theyre that good. Unfortunately the fuckwad in the MR2 that was right up my tail didnt get it as we twisted through the forest. So after a while of me driving briskly and him refusing to overtake or back off, I simply went around a slippery (but familiar) 35km/h corner doing 90km/h. I do recall being surprised that the Mini drifted a little and needed a touch of opposite-lock to correct (usually only neccesary on gravel roads) which kind of hinted I was approaching her limits. The MR2 didnt follow me any more- in fact, I didnt see it again. Now an MR2 isnt a *terrible* handler, the guy driving just didnt know what he was doing...
