Would explain that both pedals are sollicitated during whole turn.
Braking a tiny bit while exiting corner is just added brake wear. They'd have to run bigger brake ducts most likely, and that's just lost aero efficiency. But yea if the car hits some oversteer, the brake then can be used. Blipping prevents rear locking, yup.
Well guys I have come agonbisingly close to rolling and I'd like a go at driving upside down. You get me an F1 car and a tunnel, i'll sort the life insurance.
Actually my racing is going down hill fast, i need cash, all the other guys are starting to get sponsors and my main rival has a Golf GTi. Its like F1 in fast forward. Starting with colourful cars, getting sponsors and now entering the Turbo era, I have no chance.
Any ideas you suggest I'll give them a go and attach a camera to the car so you can see the results.
