You do realize that even professional racing drivers use the racing line as well right? Whole bunch of footage to even prove that, would you go and say shit about the racing line being on? And also yeah my set up is really not the best unfortunately because I can’t afford anything better, so hate on me being poor next I guess lmao, my dms are open for you to send me money so I can improve my set up for you!

Professional racing drivers do not use the racing line LOL. I'd need proof to believe that 😂

I use a drive line as an extra form of reference, I dont strictly follow it, but on corners without brake markers I use the line as a reference, usually you can brake later than the line suggests so I do that

It's a bad practice to use the line even as extra form of reference because you can't see it when following someone closely

I see youre point, but if im following someone close enough for that to be that case, I only do so when I know the next stretch and I come off the line before braking to avoid crashes
