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 you have to turn before anyone else turns. If you do this correctly, everyone behind you will have to brake too. They won't be able to see what's ahead of them. You will also avoid being in an accident with cars coming from all directions. How do you turn fast?
First, you need to know where you're going. You will likely be surprised at where you end up. This is why it's important to plan well. To see where you are going at any particular moment, make a map. It may seem like a lot of work but once you have a good idea of the route you are trying to take, you will be able to save yourself a lot later.
Next, decide when you want to turn. Start by going around the first corner. Once you have completed the first corner, your starting point will be known. You now need to choose whether you will use the inside or outside lane.
If you plan to use the inside lane, wait until there is no traffic ahead of you. 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. Keep your eyes on the outside lane and don't drift back. If you do, you could easily hit someone still moving slowly. Keep in mind that if you cross the line dividing the two lanes, you'll lose control of your vehicle and become vulnerable to crashes.
Once you have determined which lane to use, choose a point to turn. This problem can be approached in many different ways. Some people prefer looking for a gap or a void in traffic. Others look for a gap in traffic. Still, others look for a point where the road curves around a hill or mountain. You need to ensure that you don't block the entire road, regardless of what you do. You could cause traffic jams in the whole 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 sharper turn is more difficult than a gradual. However, it takes longer and requires more energy. You may also find it difficult to control your car correctly. Most drivers prefer gradual turns for these reasons.
Finally, you need to accelerate just enough to escape the car in front of you. Accelerating too early will cause you to crash into its bumper. You can also run off the road if you accelerate too quickly. You could lose control of the car and cause a crash. Accelerating slowly is the best way to avoid this. Start with very little acceleration, and only increase it as you near the edge of the road.
After you finish cornering, it is important to immediately slow down. This is especially true if you're driving in heavy traffic. Driving in heavy traffic can lead to someone being run over.
