I was going to write a long essay about cornering, but I decided to just say, buy a Playstation 3 and Gran Turismo game. Earn your licences, and get an idea of cornering lines.

Next, when winter thaws out, have a go with some mates racing go-karts. It is the cheapest safest and best way to learn about racing lines, and have some fun along the way.

yes! Took me like 5 hours to get the S license in GT3, gave me a good appreciation of the importance of smoothness And turn off the stability assists, they make things too easy!
