How To
How to get around corners quickly
In order to go faster in a race you need to get your car out from the way of other cars. This means that you must turn before everyone else. Doing this correctly will cause everyone to brake, as they won't know what is ahead. You will avoid any collisions with vehicles coming from other directions. How can you corner fast?
You must first understand where you are going. You'll likely end up somewhere unexpected if you don't know your destination. You need to plan well. It's important to create a map showing where you're going at all times. While it might seem like a lot to do, having a clear idea of where you want to go will save you many headaches down the road.
Next, figure out when your turn will be. After you have passed the first corner, it is the best place to start. Once you have reached the first corner you will know where you want to start. The next step is to decide if you want to use the outside or inside lane.
If you want to move in the inside lane you should wait until there isn't any traffic. Then you'll be able to move quickly without worrying about hitting someone. But once you enter the inside lane, you must stay in it. Don't allow yourself to drift into the other lane. If you do, you could easily hit someone still moving slowly. Keep in mind, however, that if your vehicle crosses the line dividing them, you will lose control and be vulnerable to crashes.
After you have decided on the lane that you want to use, it is time to choose a place to turn. This problem can be approached in many different ways. Some people prefer searching for a gap within the traffic. Others try to find a clear opening in the road. Others look for the point where the road curves around hills or mountains. It doesn't matter which method you choose, it is important to avoid blocking the entire road. If you do, then you'll end up causing traffic jams all across town.
After you have picked the spot you want to turn on, you should decide whether you will make a sharp or gradual left. A sharp turn is much easier to perform than a gradual one. However, it takes longer and requires more energy. This makes it harder for you to steer your car properly. Many drivers prefer to take gradual turns because of this.
Finally, you need to accelerate just enough to escape the car in front of you. You will crash into the car's bumper if you accelerate too quickly. If you accelerate too slowly, you will run off of the road. In either case, you'll lose control of your car and crash. To avoid this scenario, you need to accelerate gradually. Start slowly, but increase the acceleration as you reach the end of the road.
You must slow down as soon as you have completed cornering. This is especially important in heavy traffic. Driving in heavy traffic can lead to someone being run over.
