help with understanding

anyone have any sites or diagrams that can illustrate the physics of cornering and just understanding how to maneuver your car and consider the physics of it?? i know iam being a little vague but i guess what iam trying to say is... learning how to enter corners, how much throttle to be given, when to brake etc etc... i know best way to learn is by driving your car but i was wondering if there is any other information on this.. thanks

It's not gospel, and some of it gets a little off-topic when the author goes off on the tangent of writing a video game, but it is a good primer to help you understand things.

And it's free.
