yes but if someone said a nova is as good at taking corners as an Evo, it would be written off as obsurd, same with the GTi.

Tbf Steve, a Nova LET and a TBd Saxo are slightly different... The Nova would be substantially faster in a straight line than the Saxo.

since when has being rapid in a straight line been any good for going round a track? handling is by far favoured for use on a track hence why half them supercars in that vid fell below that 106gti 
iv seen with my own eyes people posting about beating evos on tracks in nova lets on here and its accepted, its a case of people believeing what they want to believe

All the cars in the vids are quick, i agree that the saxo is quick but that dosent matter as imo the driver and passanger are complete planks. Same applies for the RST people

you said if a Nova beat an Evo, you didn't say where/how.

only thing that would have improved the vid would be the saxo understeering into a ditch
