I recently applied this at Watkins Glen. During my last visit there I had some pretty fast laps, but my consistency left something to be desired. This time I consciously broke earlier and found my consistency in the turns went way up. Then I could push a little deeper, a little faster per lap. My times were good. Not as good as last time, but more consistent. That's a win to me. With practice I should get the 1 or 2 seconds back and be consistent.
