Who This Program Is For:


I've designed this course for those new to racing and who want to accelerate their learning.

You may be someone who has recently purchased your first simulator setup, or have recently been karting and want to start your path towards open-wheel formula.

If you are someone who has recently done a few laps and felt overwhelmed with how many things happening at once - don't worry, I know the feeling and I'm here to help.

In summary, this course is designed to break down driving into its elements, and give you a basic understanding of what we are trying to achieve, before putting it all together!

Discovery Areas:

Vocabulary & Operation - As with any new area of study, the vocabulary and slang is something that you need to know as second-nature before you begin building on ideas and progressing.

I'll explain how to feel comfortable and use the tools in the right way for optimal performance.

Driver Aids - What are the different driver aids, what do they do, and how can we learn to drive without them.

The Racing Line - How to work out where to position your car on the track, and what we are trying to achieve when we do this.

Common Mistakes, Causes & Solutions - If you have done a few laps already, its likely you struggled with braking (where, when, how much, locking, etc) or spinning when you apply the power. I'll help explain why these are happening and what we can do to reduce the frequency of these common mistakes.

Learning a New Track - It's normal to feel lost when you circulate a new track for the first time. I'll help you get up to speed quickly on a new track through both theoretical research and a practical lesson.

#1 - VOCABULARY: Improved vocabulary and ability to communicate, as well as solve / identify problems using the right terminology

#2 - RACING LINE: Increased ability to better determine the fastest racing line and get up to speed at new tracks faster

#3 - COORDINATION: Improved timing and hand / foot coordination throughout all phases of the corner - entry, mid and exit

#4 - LESS MISTAKES: Ability to recognise a lack of grip or mistake, predict the occurrence, and make the right adjustments to avoid the mistake.
