This has been bugging me, and I tried, I really, really tried, to not correct it, but ... (it's an obssession, compulsion)... it's chicane. Like in chicanery.

Hmmm... not quite what I was looking for but might work. I'm talking about how a curve becomes an S :P Then you try and straighten it out :wink:

Cornering Theory-

Quote:

The basic idea of a corner is out-in-out, like changing lanes and changing back again. Occasionally things will get more complicated than that, such as chicanes and esses, but this is the basic idea. From the original out, you brake and turn as little as possible to guide your vehicle towards the center point on the inside line of the curve. That is the in point, at which you straighten the wheel and apply pressure to the gas pedal in order to accelerate for the straightaway.

I confess, I am on vacation again... I'll be back August 30.... but only popping in now and then till that time.

Over the last few weeks the participation in this forum has taken off... heck it's a lot more like the office on the board now, 20% tech 80% screwing around.
