In this episode of Dominating with Dawson, we go over the often heard mantra of always use a late apex and always brake in a straight line. While these may be useful in some turns, they should not be construed as applicable to 100% of your laps. We go into why these methodologies are often taught early in a driver’s education, as well as what the alternatives are and when to start to expand your repertoire and incorporate more advanced techniques.
