At some point everyone go infatuated with trail braking. That's caused a lot of problems. Most of us need to get the braking done in a straight line. We're not racing. And, most of us aren't that good.

Everyone needs to know when to give up and just coast off course. Turn 16 at Sebring is a good example. A lot of hero drivers get 2 wheels off and try to save it. They inevitably just hit the inside wall. They had acres of grass on the outside of the turn. They should have used it.

They just thought they were good enough to save it. They weren't.
