Just wanted to thank you for that tip you gave me during the RASCAR
Rockingham race. You were telling me to give it more gas out of the turn and
I said I was, well I get it now. I've been running Vegas this week and
having the same issue with the back end coming around and waiting to get on
the gas too late! That was the issue like you said, I wasn't planting the
rear with the gas and the back end was washing out. But I finally got it
down a bit and am turning 32:75's at Vegas and getting better all the time.
I was so cautious with the gas in the turn I was screwing myself. Again,
thanks for the tip.

Um, giving MORE gas doesn't cause you to be loose off the turns???  It seems to
for me(in past sims).  I gotta install my new videocard so I can tear up some
cars in N2k3...<g>

My problem was that I was costing through the corners. I have found (with
Fredericksons help) that when you get about half way or even a bit before
that, that getting back on the gas stops the back end from stepping out. Try
running Vegas and just cost through the apex of the corner, in my case the
back end almost always comes around, now try giving it some throttle a
little bit before halfway. Let me know what you find.
