I'm still off the pace of the super fast crowd but it really helped me see how important brakes are and how much difference it makes.
I'm able to stay on power longer before a corner and it really brought a lot of steering to my setup. When I want to coast I just stay on power slightly.

Now I just have to learn to use the brakes properly and take some drag brake back out.
Thanks for your feedback.
Iīll tried to find that discussion on Jasons page..

Itīs all about timing and practice.
Itīs always interesting to look at what to practice on.
