The trail braking technique drivers want in lower horsepower cars differs slightly from higher horsepower cars.  

The first important thing to mention is that we never trail brake just because we think we are meant to trail brake.  We use trail braking to help get the car directed or pointed in the direction we want it to go.  If we can get that direction without a trail brake, then we will do that!

Trail braking just to trail brake results in one thing: over slowing corner entries.

When we need to introduce rotation on the entry of a corner, trail braking is the first driving characteristic coach Chris implements.

On the tighter corners his brake trace is harder with a shorter braking duration and on a longer corner we want to utilize a lighter brake with a longer braking duration. Our end goal by messing around with how hard and long we brake is to get the right amount of weight transfer into the nose of the car to remove weight from the rear end and improve steering/turn in.

We also attain power sooner due to the increased early rotation!
