GTR and curbs

In GTR, at least at Spa, some of the curbs can help a car
turn quicker if you drive the inside wheels over the curbing.
This doesn't seem realisitic to me, but it helps reduce lap
times, so I use it.

Is it just my system, or do any others here experience the
same thing?

I believe that's a fairly common practice among RL road racers (provided the
curbs are or the right height and angle).
A few of the Nascar Cup guys picked that trick from Robby Gordon at Watkins
Glen a couple of years ago (particularly in the Inner Loop)

I just spin everytime I go over them, it's like the car loses aero d/f from
under the car or something.
