[QUOTE="treynor, post: 15445173, member: 6214"] It definitely takes some getting used to. One of the key transitions I've made over the last couple years is to stop driving based on what my eyes (or 'brain') tell me the car can do, and to learn to listen to the feedback from the steering, chassis, and tires instead. It's a very different way of driving. Aero effects on corners where you are braking into entry are easier, since you're simply balancing brake and steering based on what the tires are saying to you. You can always just brake a bit longer and have a slow first half of the corner. On corners entered without braking -- let's call them 'commitment' corners -- you typically work your way up to the final entry speed by experimentation. At most tracks, that means first lifting early, then moving your lift point further and further forward until you find you can no longer make it to the apex. In some corners you eventually discover that you don't need to lift at all, you can stay in the gas past turn-in. But yea, the whole time your brain is screaming "YOU ARE GOING TO DIE". You just learn to ignore it after enough practice :) [/QUOTE]
