But sometimes hard braking and heavy foot on the gas is fun....
Then again it is needed, who would have thought that to slow down going down hill you would need to add some throttle...
Also if you need to turn I put the hand break on, put my wheels on full lock and then pull away, do a nice pivot to point the way I need to go.
Also judicious use of the hand brake can help get the car round corners if you find you are turning but the nose isn't coming round fast enough.
