I've been thinking about this lately. I tend to do the same thing, it's
probably not always the fastest way around, but I've been powering
through corners for many years (and only autoxing for 3) and I'm used to
that particular "feel".
With limited traction available, what I'm wondering is if I could make
better use of the available front traction in a corner by braking a bit
less and flowing through the corner at minimum throttle instead of "as
much throttle as it will hold".
I do left foot brake, so I'm basically always on the gas to some extent.
Any further thoughts on this hard to define topic?
