Does anyone have any good links / pics on how to take various corners in a car?
I recently went gokart racing (80km/h karts) and it was really hardcore, had to clip every apex and corner at exactly the right speed to keep up with all the pro's there.. I'm really curious how to take hairpins, the big wider corners are easy, i jsut dont know where the apex is in a hairpin... thnx --------------------  |

Try and minimise the radius of the corner.
Stay wide, turn in, hit the apex and power out. Lines for multiple corners are dependant on the following corner. Oh, and do all your braking in a straight line. At least to start with. Turning in on the brakes can have some interesting effects... -------------------- JDM ST205
