Slick;

At one track I run I go from 4th to 2cd off the straight to turn one,I prefer to go thru the gears as I brake,do not know if that is the "right" way to do it,but it works for me,and my brakes are not the best there is,so the downshifting thru the gears helps in slowing the car down..

I have also found on some turns it is better for me to stay in one gear then do an extra shift,just one less thing I have to worry about and it gives me more time to concentrate on the entry........
