[QUOTE="chris2000, post: 133305, member: 2862"] I would differ to drive slightly differently... I would really drive abit like Reihen, braking a bit earlier and more gently rather then just last min very late braking and just STOMP onto the brakes. I do brake as hard as possible but not just stomp onto it last min risking wheel lock up or not slowing enough into the corner causing massive understeer and upsetting the balance of the car. In my opinion, driving it smoothly may feel slow but it is not.. If you take the timing of our local racers on the same car, chances are that the smoother driver are consistently lapping a fast time compared to the more aggressive driver who always brake late. Another friend of mine told me for a road car, nothing really can out brake a Lotus Elise in Sepang.. Most of the Lotus owners all can brake at 50m due to the very light weight of the aluminium chassis of the Elise. Just my 2 cents... [/QUOTE]
