1. A vehicle race track driving assistance system comprising:

  • a location tracking system that tracks the location of the vehicle;

    a memory for holding race track data indicative of the shape and location of the race track, including a turn on the race track;

    a steering control system that controllably steers the vehicle; and

    a controller that causes the steering control system to controllably steer the vehicle into the turn on the race track when the location tracking system and race track data indicate that the vehicle is approaching the turn, the steering being in an amount that is insufficient to cause the vehicle to navigate through the turn without deviating from the race track.
