sort-of. but you'd be surprised.. most of the S-chassis kits you consider "drift spec" are actually not that bad, if it's set up correctly, these kits can be made to be quite stable. now that being said, do most people set them up for maximum Lap times? Hardly anyone does, and I'll be honest to set one up for slight understeer under power so it tucks in when you lift the throttle might not be the most fun setup but it can be made to lap fast.
i have a brand new S-14 K-sport kit sitting in my office, I should Dyno one front and one rear just to have the data. too bad it's sold already.
