after watching sum vids on this site i notice most of you hit the second apex then slide out of the turn in an S-turn section.
who here switches for the second apex 3/4ths of the way through the first turn? so starting the next drift before the first one is done....because that looks much better and more skillfull.
take the chicane at the end of grand valley I, i see some of you drifting left all the way to the second apex then drifting right out of the second apex.
try switching ur car back right after you clip the first apex, ull see in the replays it looks much better;)

one more thing....how many choku doris is considered too much when it comes to linking small straights, i think 2 switches is about right..

Choku Dori is just holding the e-brake through a small straight to set up for the next turn, which is in the same direction of the one you exited. Like the link at the bottom of the hill after the hairpin on Cote d'Azur. The two right turns separated by that little straight. There's a choku dori.

I think you mean Manji, and to answer that question, I think as long as you can keep the back and forth movements consistent and not all over the track on a different angle on each sway, there should be no such thing as 'too much'.
