Good point Bob!
With rear engined cars, as ours, we learn to accelerate into the corner to keep the rear of the car planted, but I found that it is faster to either just maintain neutral (constant speed into the apex) from the turning point to the apex, or part throttle (slight acceleration) into the apex. Basically, I see-saw or titte totter between oversteer and understeer till the apex. Once I am at the apex, and I know that i can make the track out point, then I squeeze the throttle.
