Hi, Rob. Actually, for maximum stability, you should be accelerating slightly all the way through the corner; you can increase the acceleration when you reach the apex. I was taught that on the approach to a bend you should have slowed to the point where you can apply throttle before you start turning the wheel.robkendall wrote:my old 480 had height adjusters on the top mount of the seat belt....in fact all of em did iirc....are you sure yours dont?
braking in corners lol....just dont do it....get the line and speed before you hit the corner, accelerate on the apex and youre off
theres an old trick we were taught (did an advanced driving course with police when i had a 6 month ambulance driving job (the old biddy bus ambulances too...not the emergency ones))
try it....goes like this....as you approach a corner, watch the curve on the right hand side of the road....where it meets the curve of the left hand side is called the something point...dont remember....so, as you drive into the bend...watch that point...if it moves towards you, youre going too fast...stays the same distance away, youre speeds fine...if it moves away, you can go faster....sounds hard but once you do it a few times its like riding a bike...is a basic principal in racing and crap.....that and out-in-out on corners.
as for the harness thing.....nah!

yup again...limit point...chriskay wrote:The words you can't remember are "limit point" & limit point analysis is just about the best technique you can learn for making maximum safe progress through bends.
