Handling comparisons: Saab 9000 v. Ford SHO

I spotted a comment from a Ford SHO owner (http://www.v8sho.com/SHO/Owner%20Testimonials.htm [search for "Saab"]) stating that his 97 was able to blow by 9000s on a mountain road. The published skidpad numbers are .84 for the 9000, and .80 for the SHO. What is reality here? Should my stock 97 CSE be able to out-corner the/any stock SHO?
I'd sure as heck feel that I could manage a skid a lot better in my Saab than in an SHO: Saabs seem to trive on being pushed, and are pretty hard to get to the "oh crap I've lost it" point.
Also, anyone have any realistic "observed" performance comparisons between a full pressure turbo 9000 and the SHO?
