I've had that issue. Once I figured out how to NOT drive wide open all the time, things got much better. If you ever watch NASCAR, one of things most commonly heard from the old timers is that you have to slow down to go fast.

Well put JThiessen. Too many of us want to drive the wheels off of our rigs trying to go as fast as we possibly can. If you have been driving for any length of time you learn that speed is relative to control. Once you concentrate on the control aspect and make speed secondary things get a lot better, and you can actually run faster lap times. It is no different then driving a real vehicle. You can have one of the fastest vehicles on the road, but if you don't know how to handle the power at hand you will end up in a wreck. Slow down a bit and work on your driving technique. Then as you feel more confident add speed a little bit at a time. Anyone can drive fast, but can you finish the race? Good luck with that.
