how fast can u take a turn?
159 mph
...this is a stupid a$$ question, what kind of road? is it cold or hot out? so many variables not all 90 degree turns are the same. This is worse than the tools that go in the race forums and ask "what will my car run in the 1/4?"

Can't be answered. Too many variables are involved. For example, the 90 degree turn entering into this wide canyon road by my house I can take at 80 or 90 because the turn is banked and I'm coming from wide flat road to another one that is as wide (or at least as wide for the next 1/4 mile) with no problems. If I did the same thing making the 90 degree turn on to the street where I live, the corner house would become my new garage.

If youre going 80mph+, jerk the car to the left when you're about 200ft from the turn, then quickly to the right. As soon as you feel the rear end lose traction, counter-steer and pull up the e-brake. You should be able to cut a 90 degree turn without trouble
