Math people: would a ship that is 1/4 slower but can complete a 180° turn 1/4 faster escape its pursuer?
I'm sure pirates knew the answer. Probably fighter pilots as well.

Don't they end up in two concentric circles with the slower ship on the inside and the faster ship on the outside?
I think so, but I can't prove it without actually using a pencil and paper.
