i recently bought a 2001 firebird. Compared to my last car, the steering is quite stiff and hard. Is this normal for sports cars to have stiff steering or is the power steering messed up?

My friend had a car that was brand new, steering felt fine, and then one night while we were racing he ran off the road and did a little damage to the alignment I believe. The steering felt tighter after that, but never posed any problems.
