Two Twenty Into K-Right, Don't Cut (330/366)

Rally drivers use "pace notes", describing the road ahead, and the corners they face.

This is a 90-degree right-hander at the end of a 220m straight. 90 degree corners are called "K" because of the angle at which the upper and lower arms of a capital K intersect. "Don't cut" is one of those warnings to the driver, that they can't cheat a little off the angle of the corner. In this case, because the corner, with steep banks either side, is blind.

The car accelerates hard along the straight. Barrelling towards the wall of hedgerow directly ahead. Its driver, having been told about the oncoming corner, picks a braking point.

Taillights flare. Speed hauled off by massive steel discs behind the front wheels. And then we're there. At the turn-in point. Commit to the corner, swing the wheel, aim for the apex. Roll off the brakes, feed in power against decreasing steering angle as the exit opens. Then hard on the gas to fire the car out. As Jay-Z would say, "On to the next one".

If you're a keen driver, there are few feelings better in a car than getting a corner absolutely right. And that's why this is my entry for the week's challenge on the topic of "corner".
