How To
How to turn fast
When racing, you want your car to move ahead of others in order to be faster. This means that you need to turn before others. 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 can also avoid collisions with cars coming in different directions. So, how can you turn quickly?
First, it is important to understand where your destination is. You'll likely end up somewhere unexpected if you don't know your destination. Plan carefully. It's important to create a map showing where you're going at all times. Although it may seem tedious, having a map of your route will help you save a lot of time and headaches.
Next, figure out when your turn will be. After you have passed the first corner, it is the best place to start. After you have passed the first corner, it will be clear where you are starting from. The next step is to decide if you want to use the outside or inside lane.
If you are planning to travel in the inner lane, it is best to wait until you see no traffic. This will allow you to move fast and avoid hitting anyone. However, once you get into the inside lane you must remain there. Do not allow yourself to drift back into the outside lanes. If you do so, you may hit someone moving slowly. Remember that crossing the line between the lanes can cause you to lose control of the vehicle, making it more vulnerable to accidents.
After you have decided on the lane that you want to use, it is time to choose a place to turn. This problem can be tackled in many ways. Some people prefer to look for a gap in traffic. Others will look for a clear opening on the road. Others look for the point where the road curves around hills or mountains. No matter what method you use, you must be careful to not block the entire road. Traffic jams can be caused by blocking the entire road.
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 can be more challenging than a slow one. But it is more difficult and requires more energy. This makes it harder for you to steer your car properly. Many drivers prefer to take gradual turns because of this.
You must accelerate slowly enough to avoid hitting the car in front. Accelerating too early will cause you to crash into its bumper. Accelerating too fast will cause you to skid on the road. In either scenario, you could end up losing control of your car or crash. This is why you should accelerate slowly. Start with very little acceleration, and only increase it as you near the edge of the road.
You must slow down as soon as you have completed cornering. This is especially important when you're driving through heavy traffic. Otherwise, you'll risk running someone over.
