Then I decided to switch them off as I read that is what you need to do, to go fastest.. I couldn't believe how easily I spinned out, seemed impossible, i was angry as a boiling teapot:) But even that same day I already had it under control and the Ford Focus was perfect to learn on:)

Then it becomes automatic, sure different cars differ, but the 'sliding out feel' is the same.. You have to learn to feel when the car is about to slide.. And of course know the tracks (participating in the World Time Trials and racing the ghosts of better players is perfect learning) Braking points also.. As I know the tracks well now, I have basically only 2 levels of braking points i use for most cars.. Often i know after few corners if to push or hit brakes early etc.. That's enough to win most series..

Now I can listen to iPod when racing, especially when I was still farming LeMans, and go almost as fast just by 'feel'.. (I race with the bonnet view, no assists, str. sensitivity 0)
