[YDD] Simple Process To Help Drivers Improve
Hello Reader,
Every driver can improve. There is so much to driving fast on track that knowing where to start can feel overwhelming. The role of a driver coach is to help you breakdown the complexity. To simplify what to do and to help you prioritise what to do next. Part of this is to create a simple process that allows driver and coach to work together effectively.
Jim Kearney is a US based driver coach. His processes have been refined with a number of drivers over many years. He joined me in the podcast to talk about his experiences and put forward a number of simple things you can do as a driver to help you improve.

It was a real pleasure to have Jim on the show and I hope you enjoy listening to what he has to say.
How do you approach driver improvement? Does any of what Jim says ring true for you? Or perhaps you've a different experience on what works. Hit reply and let me know.
Keep learning to go faster,
Samir

Or, you can try some preparation beforehand – like reading written guides, studying track maps and watching online videos. This weeks article is about levelling up...
