Keep in mind that you should adjust your driving style for each one in order to use it efficiently. In order to take advantage of the one-way, you have to stay on the gas deeper into the corner and keep the trigger just above neutral through the apex. Some drivers trim up their neutral throttle to a slow roll.

With these driving adjustments, you should notice that your closing speed should increase noticeably when tailing another car with a front diff into and through a corner. However, you have to take into account that their car may not hold as much speed as yours through the apex and you should be ready to adjust your line to the outside in order to checkup (without brakes) and not ram them from behind. If you do trim up your neutral throttle, make sure its not too fast of a roll to where you don't have time to adjust your line on corner entry if necessary.
