Harry Hogge: What do you know about stock car racing?
Cole Trickle: Well... watched it on television, of course.
Harry Hogge: You've seen it on television?
Cole Trickle: ESPN. The coverage is excellent, you'd be surprised at how much you can pick up.
Harry Hogge: I'm sure I would.

Be smooth! Smooth on the brakes (squeeze them), smooth steering inputs, smooth on the throttle (again, squeeze it). Abrupt inputs to any control can upset the attitude of the car and complicate things when you are really going quickly.

Smooth, smooth, smooth!
This applies to other things too........

I agree . This is how I was taught. My instructors used the wet sponge method. Think of a wet sponge under the throttle. When you accelerate push down hard enough to go but still keep the water in the sponge same when you lift. It will give you more throttle control which is paramount.

What is the correct way to drive through a curve (spirited driving)?
Slow in sideways out not fast but spectacular and smile on your face. LOL Make sure you know your car first of all, basic handling, like me I have a friend is South Africa with a 997 GT3 RS and the car scares him, I usually drive it on track days and its is awesome. But when I use to get in my old 930 (in your mind you think you can do the same) in corner 1 I am in the sand trap. Every time. I know its not the same comparison (930 is brutal turbo lag is terrible). Go to a track day get instruction and slowly start pushing yourself. As soon as you go O **************** that will be your limit. Maybe not the cars limit but yours, if as individuals we did not have limits we would all be F1 drivers.
