Well, I'm happy for you, though there's no reason to be snippy about it. I will say that you're the first person I've heard from who thinks the Banshee is easier to powerslide with than the Yakuza Stinger, however.
Just to make sure, I looked up the vehicle stats on GameFAQs. The Banshee and Yakuza Stinger have the exact same mass, resistance to damage, number of gears and maximum speed. (The plain Stinger is slightly lighter and easier to damage, but has identical speed stats.) The Banshee is front-wheel drive and has slightly higher acceleration (about 10%); the Yakuza Stinger is 4-wheel and has better traction and tighter steering.
In a nutshell, in an urban environment (like the Turismo course) with lots of sharp turns, lots of traffic and obstacles and very few straightaways, I'll take better handling over better acceleration any day. If you can keep the back end of the Banshee from skidding during full-speed powerslides, more power to you.
