Cornering Speed

From previous track time in my old car, still getting used to the g, aprox what is your speed and braking percentage when entering a corner.

I think people will need a lot more information before answering that question. Road conditions, turn radius, turn shape (ie. increasing/decreasing radius), elevation change, etc. I think Eagle1 here could probalby give you some good advice on particular turns for tracks in SoCal.

That has got to rank up there as one of the most useless questions ever asked.

Wow, that put me in my place. Next time you may want to try at least spelling my name correctly to really ram that little dig home.

Seriously, how on earth could anybody answer that question. That's like asking how long to cook food or how many mpg trucks get. You couldn't have given any less detail. The answer is somewhere between full braking and 5mph and 0 braking and the speed limited 159mph.

+1 to what everyone else said, all corners are different, off camber, decreasing radius, etc... all influence how to attack a corner........

The car will corner as fast as you want it too. Furthermore you state you have "track time" in your cars so you should probably have an idea of how the G handles. But then again, your old car may have been a Big Wheel.
