So learning to do that is my big goal. I'm mostly a tremendous pussy driving my DD on track and will never go even 9/10 in high-risk corners, but I think I can learn this approach with enough practice. I'm not really expecting to learn it in one day or even one summer, but it's what I'm working towards.
Exactly, the earlier the car is pointed to the exit, the earlier you get on the gas. Studs can many times do this before the apex One observation, I'm not sure what your setup is exactly, but if your car isn't loose as hell, it can mean you have to be pretty pronounced w/ the techniques to get this done. This means it's really easy to just go way overboard or not enough, and I'm with you. Until I'm trailering in my 944 I have to drive my 135 home.
