028 – Vivek Goel: What The Best Performance Drivers Do

Vivek Goel joins me to talk about what he learned when he surveyed 350 drivers, asking them about their level of experience and ability, and what they do to improve. Of course, after talking about what the best drivers in his survey did, I ask Vivek what he does.

029 – Terry Earwood: The Voice of Experience

Terry Earwood joins me to talk about… well, a little of everything about driving: drag racing, Sebring, road racing, autocross, instructing, the Skip Barber school, and the 39,000 drivers he’s instructed. Oh, and we laugh about the funniest things we’ve seen drivers do, teaching cops how to drive.

030 – Allen Berg: Racing Senna, F1 & Coaching Drivers

Allen Berg joins me to talk about his experience racing F3 against Ayrton Senna and Martin Brundle, how he made it to Formula One, and his transition into coaching drivers today. Of course, I ask him one of my favorite questions: What is it that the best drivers do that others don’t?

031 – Ryan Staub: Managing Risk & Having Fun

Ryan Staub joins me to talk about the fun stuff – risk and insurance for the track. Okay, that’s not all we talk about because that would be boring (but important stuff to know). We also talk about the car club scene, where younger drivers are participating in performance driving events, and the cultures that the best HPDE organizations have.

032 – Robert Pool: How to Practice to Drive Faster

Robert Pool joins me to talk about how to practice to improve your performance in anything, the book that he and Anders Ericsson wrote, and the research that Ericsson is known for worldwide. We’re talking about “deliberate practice,” the new science of expertise, and clarifying the “10,000 hour rule.” Oh, and what you hear Robert talk about will help you be a better driver (if you use what he talks about).
