Go to VROC at http://www.racesimcentral.net/
I'm sure some people there would be more than willing to help. I have on one
occasion watched a person while they were turning a lap and gave them advice
which resulted in a record time for them!

Thanks,

Hey David

I came across this really by mistake. Do not know the technical term but I find the
cars much more controllable by holding brake and keeping a bit of throttle in
before and through the turns to the apex. Experimenting with this the car seems
more controlled going in and exiting. Exiting the turn increasing throttle and
releasing the break in an exponential movement helped me.
Don't know, this is one tough cookie, may change my style tomorrow, but I found
this technique seems to work ok. I cannot keep the car on the track if I coast in,
its all over the place!

Enjoy!
Rick
