The Art of Wet Cornering– Sort Of

The boys over at Top Gear are at it again, seen here in an impromptu wet cornering session with some of the worst (and one of the best) handling cars on the UK market. The blokes take a section of their airport-runway-as-track test circuit at speed in a Lotus Exige, Toyota Prius, Perodua Kenisa, and Smart ForTwo.

For our money, the Malaysian-built Kenisa’s dynamics antics look downright scary and rather amusing at the same time.

Silly twits. This has become Benny Hill for gearheads.

If the Stig were really brave, he'd go at it in an Explorer shod in mid-90s OEM Firestones!
