    I’m practicing trail braking. Let’s say, for instance, I enter corner in 3rd gear. Through corner, I reduce speed enough that it would be better to exit corner in 2nd gear, otherwise engine lugs. Is it advisable to shift mid-corner. As I see it, that introduces some risk if engine speed wasn’t matched well to gear and road speed.
