You've probably heard the saying "smooth is slow, and slow is fast" when it comes to racing or high-performance driving.
Generally true. But to be as fast as possible, you have to push the limit of your tires, drive right on the edge of grip, and find the optimum slip angle. Sometimes that looks smooth behind the wheel. Other times, you really have to work your hands to keep up as the slip angle is constantly changing on all four tires.
