The S2K being my first RWD and hearing countless members losing control of their cars, i am beginning to feel very paranoid.

Would you guys share your cornering skills with the rest of us newbies???

Im suggesting posting videos, directions, or drawing a picture of your favorite turn and labeling the critical points of that turn. Who knows, even the pros might end up learning from each other.

Of course i wouldnt practice on the streets. These advices will serve a great purpose when i go to the tracks.

Thanks in advance guys!!!

 

Also what is a good read to try and improve knowledge along with the skills?

I think the most important thing to know about rwd cars is when going around a corner don't lift in the middle of it or you'll end up looking at what was just behind you.

 

When I first got the car, I just pay extra attention to how the rear end felt. If I feel the rear end is moving out, I try to put in a tap of gas and lightly adjust the steering wheels to counter it. (done at moderate condition). Once I got the behavior of the car, I am able to go faster around the corner.

 

There are plenty of good books out there too.

See http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...812121?v=glance

and follow some of the other links from that one.
