anyway, a car with superb handling with sufficient horsepower is my choice. Having a car with a very high top speed doesn't make much sense if you are using it for street driving (speed trap are everywhere here). So with that single fact, you can't save time by speeding on the straight, instead you can save time if you can turn into a corner faster, since you won't break any trafic rules unless you understeer and hit the car coming at the other side. (ok i always woke up late for college and i need to get to college fast )
