I agree... crossing the line is a bit oh-shit.

Im definitely not the fastest, but I prefer the rest of it be as close to "my" perfect as I can get it.


I'm the same way. I have corners I know and love. I have corners I know and hate. :lmao:

I like to get as close to "my" perfect as I can. When I blow it, I shake my head and try and move on but it always affects me for a bit.

Once I leave my lane or drift wide if it's on track would I consider it a "blown" turn, minor corrections are necessary even if you don't realize you are making them in every turn you go through. Too many conditions change and adjustments are made without us even realizing we are compensating for those changes to consider a minor adjustment a blown turn.

Yeah my vote was either for this, or if you go off the road.

Track: if I have to slow down to correct
Street: if I cross either line

Correcting within the lane is not blowing the curve (although I might still be annoyed with my actions). If I leave my lane I have "blown" the corner and consider it almost as bad as if I go off the road. I have one lane to work within.
