Gerard, basically you don't shift or brake or anything mid-corner. Try to calculate the speed needed before the turn and downshifting or heel/toeing accordingly. For SOLO's and autox's it's mostly 2nd gear thru the corners. Your goal is to concentrate on turning and not shifting or anything else that might throw the balance of the car away.

The most important thing to remember is not to break or even let off the gas in a drift. A drift is when the car travels sideways thru a corner. Practice in a snowy or wet parking lot and you will see what I mean
