Default Couple ?s

Ok I am thinking about getting a new or second car...I've owned 2 3rd Gen camaro's and one 3rd Gen T/A. They were pretty mean especially the T/A with it's built 400. But at the time I was into drag only. Now I'm looking to get into road racing a little bit. I'm wondering how the T/A's are on roads that aren't straight. How's the handling. If it's not very good can you make it good? If I get one it will more than likely be a Manual 3rd Gen T/A or IROC Z, or an LS1 T/A M6. Thanks for the help guys.

The third gens have remarkable handling abilitys, thirdgen.org can answer more questions about the third gens than you can ever imagine. Third gen platform is used for everything imaginable, it has a perfectly placed rear axle a great suspension. Thick factory sway bars off the WS6 optioned cars from 86-92 make them excelent budget cars for road racing/autocross. Cheap and capable, that is the third gen way for another 5-10 years.
