Animation: Braking in a Turn

Transcript for Braking in a Turn

• Place markers #3 and #4 ahead and several feet to either side of #2, as indicated in the diagram.
• Practice making turns by accelerating through the gears in the straightaway, downshifting at the turns (marker #2), and coming to a smooth stop at #3 or #4.
• Keep your eyes forward in the straightaway, and look around the turn as you approach marker #2.
• Make sure you release the throttle before you shift, and keep your foot clear of the shift pedal after you shift.
