Q: “My car is trying to kill me! 🙂 Going into and through the middle of a corner, it understeers. Then, just past the apex, as I’m getting on the throttle, it snaps into a deadly oversteer. Any thoughts on how to fix that?”

Q: “How do you go about learning the traction gradient at a new track?

Q: “My question is this: I’m kinda at a plateau where the improvement curve has seemed to flatten. I really don’t have resources for a $1500 per day coach… well, my wife says I don’t!

So, Ross what do you suggest for a 58-year-old guy who loves the track and wants to be smoother and faster?”
