Been experimenting a lot lately with braking. Braking is a bad thing when you wanna go fast (which we on RR3 all want) but good to prevent skidding, hitting stuff, going off track and a lot of other nasty things which make you go even slower.

The following methods are available in RR3 to go slower.

1. One hard brake at the right braking point lasting to the APEX and then stop braking and full throttle out of the curve.

2. A series of fast tapped brakes starting somewhat before the "ideal" braking point (saw a lot of fast bots do this)

3. When a car is in front of you, using it to brake and spinning it out of the track while doing so.

4. Never brake; just let go of the gas just in time (before the "ideal" braking point).

5. Use the gras / off-track to lose speed fast.

6. Use walls to lose speed fast.

Combining 2 and 3 have been working well for me for most of the cars / races, but my WTT times are never top notch.

Any feedback from the wiki on the optimal braking method?
