1. you can brake later. this is intuitive to having more speed, you carry more speed longer, and that means your faster.
2. trail brake to kill understeer. this allows you to turn in at faster speeds than a straight line breaker would. which means you have faster apex speed, and a faster slowest cornering speed. this leads to faster straight line speed to because you got off the corner faster.
if you are in significant oversteer on entry, you held on too long.

Didnt you just confirm what i said?
Btw i never said never trail brake.
Were are debating why not to be in neutral and coast through 1 single fixed radius turn.
We arent talking about racing and combination of turns. Or outbraking or taking alternative lines
For 1 single fixed radius turn i see no trailbraking as the solution to get trough that turn as the fatest way.
Trailbraking is for variable conditions. Workarounds to things that take the driving away from the ideal line on a single fixed radius turn.. to keep it together despite people driving around you. For combinationsnof turns increasing or decreasing radius turns. All hose things . Trailbraking is 1 thing in the bag of tricks.
But we arent taling about racing or all the variables
We are taling about neutral through 1 corner
Quite frankly diacussig all the variables will never work in text cause its way too dynamic
