the corner thing
During the war.....err no while I was training for my Cardington test with a ex copper DSA instructor , a IAM instructor with tagging along one day
The IAM guy was trying to pick me for poor road position (the ex cooper didn’t have a problem with me and walked off with his brew smiling) because I was not doggedly moving left for a right corner /right for a left corner etc.
What he could not take on board was these were shallow chicanes and not full corners so the better position was to go apex to apex as that allowed better vision but he just kept saying “well that’s not how we are taught “ rather than seeing if I might have something and trying my way before condemning it.
Its this mind set which just pushes my buttons lol
