In last Sunday's "school" Rhett and Carlo both commented that I was pinching in a turn. What is it that I am doing?:confused:

You were probably taking too shallow of an arc through the corner, which may have been caused by turning in too early or just not using up all the available road to make the radius as large as possible.

A lot of autox turns require a late apex, so it helps to avoid "pinching". :)

oh! that is exactly what i was doing wrong. i start with a shallow arc then turn more and i get a super-sized understeer.

Thanks
