You Don't Know What You Don't Know

Sure you can drive fast… but can you drive well? Driver coaching is designed to reduce your lap times and improve your critical thinking for when things go wrong.

💡You don't know what you don't know 💡

A HUGE part of what we do is driver coaching. You see it in all of our Arrive 'N' Drive packages, at our Super Track Days and as part of our OLT recommendations.

Let's face it, driving a car on the road is one thing but driving under modified racing conditions is another! Our coaches are there not only to reduce your lap times but also to keep you, the drivers around you, and your car safe. We want you to get the most out of your track time.

So what does coaching involve? 1 on 1 coaching gives you access to personalised advice from a professional racing driver. They'll spend the day watching your lines and how you handle the car. They'll also use in car footage to review how you handle rev matching and footwork. When you're at a race meeting, our Head Coach Phil Alexander will jump on the cans with you and coach you through the race. This is an invaluable experience from someone who has raced at some of the biggest tracks around the world. He is there with you the whole day to oversee and manage the pit crew, maintenance of the car, and racing strategy.

Driver coaching is an integral part of your motorsport journey. It helps improve your lap times, make you a better driver and develops your critical thinking to understand what happened when things go wrong. Remember folks, you don't know what you don't know! 🏁

WHAT TO EXPECT: SUPER TRACK DAYS

8:00AM ARRIVE

Time to grab a fresh cup of coffee, check in with the squad and do your paperwork. You’ll get an idea of the layout of the day and then have a chance to unload your vehicle and do a once over for tyre pressures and what not.

8:30AM MORNING TRACK WALK / SLOW DRIVE

A gentle wakeup before hitting the tarmac - the track walk / slow drive gives you a chance to familiarise yourself with the track without the pressure of changing gears. Your coach will guide you through the best racing lines and recap the latest and greatest skid marks adorning the track.

9:30AM HIT THE TRACK

You know what comes next… laps laps and more laps. Open Pit Lane means you can come and go from the track as you like and do as many laps as you want!

11:00AM GROUP COACHING SESSION

Around 11am after your first skid there is a group coaching session for everyone attending the day. It’s a great opportunity to ask all the questions and have a discussion with your fellow motorheads. Most coveted topics include - “How do I go faster?”, “Oops I spun Out”, and “What’s with turn two?!”

1:00PM LUNCH BREAK

Good time to fuel up your body (and car.) Don’t forget to hydrate. Driving on the track under modified racing conditions takes its toll on the body. We recommend keeping some Hydrolyte handy.

1:45PM HIT THE TRACK
