Maybe I'm just confused about what you're saying. Buts lets disregard the acceleration piece for now. Exiting the corner faster (higher speed) will play into the overall speed you carry down the straight. If you exit at 80 vs. 70, the top speed by the next braking point will be higher. Whether his car gets from 80-100 faster than yours gets is a question of power, and in that manner, you are right.

Sorry if I sound like I'm questioning your skill or anything. I'm in no way trying to debate someone's abilities.
