This is the only track i know where every corner is a potential fail. Its so challenging.

worst feeling is starting to spin out. hitting the grass and just waiting for impact because theres nothing u can do

@Duron13 lol how did the car do most of it...? that makes no sense. just because it's a proper race car doesn't mean it drives itself, if it were that way everyone would be pros.

@123aellis That's funny because you was thinking the same about me: I don't know anything so I'm wrong.

And about your video I hope you will excuse me but I don't think you can compare a car modified to race and a proper racing car. You did a good job to keep it but the car did most of it.

@Duron13 If you want to see a proper counter-steer, check out this video... By the way, I don't mean to be arguing with you or offending you here, I'm just trying to make a point.

watch?v=AetLBUlHEE0

watch that video at about the 7:00 mark. You will see what I mean, going up the hill the car snapped out. Look how quickly my hands moved to catch the car, and how quickly I was back driving as if nothing had happened. That easily could have been a car in the wall.

@Duron13 What leads you to say I don't know much about that...? The thing with youtube and these pointless arguments is that you have no idea who you are talking to... I'm an established racing driver who competes at a high level, so I promise you I know what I am talking about...

@Ulleval73 No, if he lifted off of the gas it would transfer weight to the front end. That being said, without a correction, it would only exaggerate the slide. If he corrected at the same time, it would make the correction more effective. It's best not to do that though because then the correction is unpredictable and it can snap back. That's why it's best to keep consistent throttle and use a quick hand correction as it is most predictable and effective.

New comment: I am not an expert...or even a student...just an observer. When he began to loose it, what would have happened had he just lifted his foot off the gas? Would that be the 'big correction' needed to bring the car back? Or was he (heck maybe the driver was a woman!) destined to wrinkle the car?

@123aellis Well, obviously you don't know much about that so I'll leave you there. Believe what you want.
