But that's just how it is driving a kart isn't it? The steering, throttle and kart balance are a fairly dynamic thing that you learn to sense as you drive. It doesn't just change over the course of a race, you sometimes have to make small allowances as you're cornering.

I quite often find that after the generally desirable smidge of understeer on turn-in, I can experience oversteer on the way to the apex, try to neutralise it with a bit of opposite before getting into "constant radius", and still aim to be just on the positive lock side of neutral steering before I think about getting back on the throttle properly.

Given that all the above takes less than a second, and the steering movements are often really small, you'd probably need a lot of frames of high speed high resolution video to see what's going on. And I'm not even particularly quick.

I agree with Ian that steering dead ahead is probably desireable from turn in to the apex. It looks from the data of my quicker laps that I use it to scrub off the last bit of speed before getting to constant radius. But I'm still pretty sure I get the best exit speed when I apply positive lock after this.

Oh and Ian, stop eating humble pie, it doesn't suit you. As a proponent of the argument, I enjoy the odd spar, and wouldn't want you any other way. The only reason I have to be so polite is that I am fallible in the extreme, and it gives me the option of backtracking to "it was only my humble opinion" when it turns out I was talking complete rubbish.
