i couldnt understand why soo many people got lost

people need ti understand that walking the course is key
as well as the 1st slow drive you dont stick up behind the man in front of you but give some space so you can see the course in front of you as well as the upcoming cones

Not being disrespectful or anything but i did see the white civic with the red wheels take the wrong corner to head back up to the cross on both first and second laps, when it was at the pointer cone you should be turning.
I did it as well no big deal we all make mistakes

nope
you observed wrong

dont be fooled by the civic's sideways antics

chris said it right you are supposed to be on partial throttle on a corner to keep the revs

brake hard in a straight line

aply throttle to keep momentum up
apply full throttle after apex or when your tires are almost straight.

most importnat be smooth

slowest drive is usally the fastest..

Now knowing how much brake to apply will come with practice I guess. I noticed that I slow down way too much sometimes... I've seen Ignorant Ignis drive my car through corners much faster than me. I guess one also has to know the limit of the tyres as well (considering I have no ABS).

I'm definitely going to try this on the 19th.
