How do I drive fast through a turn?
#42
From the tuition I have had in the UK you should always try and be on either the throttle or the brake, 'coasting' a corner you have less control.
I was told to get the car to the corner speed by the turn in point, and then apply lets say, 30% power, then, as you get to the apex feed in the power as quickly/slowly as required, but never quick enough that you have to reduce the power input. if you do that, your accelerating too hard too soon.
Sometimes, like at cadwell park in the UK coming over one the the crests you lift off and then turn in to move the weight of the car, but you have to get straight back on the power to use the camber of the corner.... that is a whole different story though.
In honesty, you should probably ignore everything i had said above and do one thing. Tuition, Tuition and Tuition. Its the easiest and best way to get better. Never be too proud to get tuition.
