if you are entering solid, but not crazy insane, then you'd need earlier countersteer but not a ton of it (turn the wheel slower, but dont wait to do it).
or you got your lazy entries where you are kind of waiting on angle to build. turn little later and slower...
there is no 'THIS IS IT' way to explain it, its all on feeling. its always going to be a guess, but the more seat time, the less it feels like your guessing. there is not a single way to enter. sometimes the turn is slower than the run up, sometimes its same, sometimes its broad, sometimes its tight, sometimes its decreasing or increasing radius. all these things can mean you should enter with more/less aggression and angle. its all learning. this is why it takes years to get decent and then more to be able to figure out a course on your own.
i value your information quite a bit. i soak this shit up like a sponge lol. i know you said you wouldnt like to, incase you hit a wall, but id really like for you to drive my car sometime on the track. i need a ride along with someone and see how they react to these larger corners.
i think i may be treating every turn like a 90 or 180. i seem to whip it hard and countersteer late. should i try a more gradual "just let the rear break traction instead of flick+clutch kick" approach? i know ill still need to clutch kick or hand break it, but should i stop trying to flick it so hard? like go for less angle?
i think i have an idea, go for less angle and just get around the corner, increasing angle with practice and comfidence...
