   I am a racer... ...for the last 11 years.   
      
   And before I was a racer, I took a 3-day race driving school with Skip   
   Barber (look them up) followed by 2 2-day advance courses.   
      
   And now I myself am a certified senior race driving instructor.   
      
   And I can back up everything I say.   
      
   In all that time, no one has ever referred to the line that a car takes   
   through a corner as being a catenary.   
      
   But Arlen is too cowardly to engage.
