We apply gas when cornering to overcome the drag induced by turning in and endeavour to maintain our speed.
In general, is it best to set gas before steering, after steering (and inducing drag) or blending at the same time; I was wondering how some of you were taught this, and what your experiences etc are.
Thanks

The reason I started this thread was because I've come across differing opinions. So I've also found that gentle as I start to steer, stops the drag taking affect and 'seems' to reduce amount of steering input.
I have read some of the previouse threads, but wasn't clear on whether the gas came in before, during or after steering.
Stresseddave also suggested (if I'm not mistaken) increasing the gas mid-bend?
