The racing line is the line that allows you to turn the least and use the slightest steering input (the less you turn the wheel, the faster you go). To establish a racing line for the entire track, you’ll want to remember that sometimes the fastest way around a turn may not be ideal for your overall speed on the track. One of the most common mistakes people make is braking in the turn, causing them to slide out. Just be sure you’re braking before the turn.

By slowing the kart, you’ll have a lot more control which will help to keep it straight, have a higher exit speed, and an overall faster driving style.

When you enter a turn, don’t be afraid to use the brake to slow the kart. Not to mention, when you slide to a stop on the track, you’ll have to wait for a track marshal to come bail you out, losing precious seconds on the track. If you enter the turns sideways, the high-grip tires slow you extremely fast and you won’t have any power to exit the corner.
