Got questions? I’ve got answers. This is where I post answers to the many questions I receive. You may find the answer to a question you have here (you can use the “Search” tool), but if not, you have two options:
- If you want the answer immediately, sign up for my SpeedSecrets.ai app (think of it as “Google on steroids, focused solely on performance/race driving,” or “ChatGPT trained to only pull from the 5 million+ words and content I’ve personally created”)
- If you can wait until I get to your question, email it to me.
Q: How can I improve at remembering reference points around the track?
Q: What are the pros and cons of using a simulator versus mental imagery (visualization)?
Q: What’s the best way to break in a tire, and then learn to drive it to its peak?

Q: Will a slow application of the brakes settle the car and help me slow better?
Q: How quickly should I be able to go from full throttle to applying the brakes?
Q: How do I adapt my driving from a solid-axle car to one with independent rear suspension?
Q: How can I get in the zone more often when driving on track?
