i knew a guy who had a very very fast and powerful chevy II. just a rocket ship. it had 4 wheel drum brakes. i drove it once and endlessly was shouted at to "quit heatin up them brakes" and "lookout for the puddle". definitely not a comfortable experience. (same guy also had a custom built mazda cosmo which was actually pretty neat. i had a chance to buy it once, but the engine builder explained that he would kill us both if we started trading in that car, so we left it alone.)
i once also drove a euro S600 that had about the same sort of get up and go as that chevy. only it actually had brakes, steering and a suspension as well. was comfortable after about 10 minutes and could have driven it the rest of my life.
