QUOTE (Formula WS6 @ Jan 6 2004, 10:33 PM) i was just curious to know if its possible with our cars cause i don't think i can do it. You can do it. I've done it in a '86 GLH Turbo (Omni), '91 Sentra SE-R and now my Formula. Just practice. It doesn't come easy. Do it on the street with light braking whenever you come to a turn where you don't have to stop and progressively move up on how much braking you give the car. Eventually you'll be smooth on a road course even at max braking. If you learn how to do it there are very big advantages to it. |
