How not to brake for a corner, newbies pay attention

[1795]

What's amazing is the amount of thought that I had during those few seconds. I was planning, thinking about where the other cars were and where I wanted to be and had time to decide that I should get the car off the track to the outside and drove it onto the grass to get out of everybody's way. I think that it was more reaction time than anything else. I just reviewed the speed on the video and I was doing 88 mph when the spin started. Things happen fast when you are going fast.

What allows me to race is that those things will make me think that I do not want to do that again, but they do not scare me enough to stop racing. I came off the track after that lap to check the underside of the car to make sure nothing was damaged, which luckily nothing was, and was back out driving fast for the next session.
