What specs are the most useful for determining handling

driving the thing tends to work well for me.

sorry buscuck

>>16760033
Depends. Ride comfort is subjective. Handling is compared using skidpad ratings and track times.

>>16760042
Handling is subjective too.

>>16760058
How do you figure?

>>16760058
True.

>>16760062
Something set up for good off road handling, won't have good on road handling.

Okay then let's just say as far as DD goes

shame about the face eh

>>16760074
Depends on what you want to do with it?

Sounds like you just need something from A to B, any typical compact to midsize car will perform adequately for what you need.

the heavier, the more downforce

>>16760144
Joking aside, some manufacturers have used softer springs and smaller antisway bars for special track editions.
Proven that cars that feel "slushier" than their counterpart can actually handle better.

>>16760062
How do you not?

>>16760033

The color (bright and metallic colours are best) and decals. The bigger and louder the decal , the more hp, torques, and handling you'll have.

ANd don't forget the BLACKICE™ so you can HELLAFRESH!

Damper dyno curves.

If you know what you're looking at, of course.

>>16760033
Who is this chick?

>>16760033
The lower the car the better handing. The wider tyres the better handling

>>16760678
GET YOUR FEET OFF MY DASHBOARD REEEEEE

>>16760033
Take your dirty shoes off my dashboard and don't make a mess on my seat you filthy cunt.

Weight is the most critical factor: less weight is good for handling, more is good for comfort.

precise steering =/= more grip

Beat me to it

Ride comfort is subjective.
Handeling would probably be weight distribution, center of gravity height and suspension type.

>>16760033
Handling is impossible to quantify using the likes of lap times or skid pan Gs because they are influenced more by tyre choice so unless you are looking at tests performed with identical tyres the numbers only tell you a small fraction. You could look for a low polar moment of inertia and a low C.o.G. combined with a high torsional stiffness but even then if the suspension isn't balanced the way you like it then it may be able to set a fantastic lap time in the hands of a professional driver but you could find the handling shit because it's too twitchy at the limit and too dull at 90%.

Ride comfort is simple NVH metrics exist for that very reason.

>>16760033
A shorter wheelbase (the measurement from the center of the front wheel to the center of the back wheel) is usually found in cars that are better at going around the curves (think Miata) and a longer wheelbase is usually found in smoother riding cars (think Lincoln Town Car)...

>>16760033
a fucking test drive.
If that is somehow not the answer you're looking for, neck yourself you bench racing piece of shit.

>>16760321
Most reviews of the Viper praise it's suspension compliance.

>>16766646
Add to that differential types as well as which wheels are being driven (in the case of cars), and tyres.

These:
Spring rates
Shock dampening
Steering gear ratios
Tires
Wheelbase
Drivetrain layout
Ride height
Body shape/aerodynamics
