Dealing with a Bad Handling Car

DwD 0444: Dealing with a Bad Handling Car

Despite all of our efforts to prepare the ideal car, some of us have had to deal with a car that is ill mannered. (Or at least not ideal to what we as the driver would like). During this episode, we talk about a few of the times that we have been on track in a bad handling car. We then also go into some of the ways to deal with/or drive around the limitations of the car.

Track Markers – Their Use and Options

DwD 0442: Track Markers – Their Use and Options

On this episode of Dominating with Dawson, we go into how to determine what markers to use when on track and some of our personal preferences for selecting markers. Initially, Ben goes into the way that he prepares for an upcoming track and how he uses this preparation to get his markers ahead of even arriving at the track. The importance of markers can vary depending on the type of driver that you are, but even the most “feel” oriented driver can always use track markers to gain additional speed and comfort when in track, especially a new to them track.

Antilock Braking Systems (ABS) On Track

DwD 0440: Antilock Braking Systems (ABS) On Track

On this episode of Dominating with Dawson, Blake fills in for Ben and we discuss the proper use of ABS systems on a race track. There are several advantages to using ABS on track, especially when a track is wet, but there are also a few things to be aware of and even potentially better ways to drive than using the ABS system. Ben does make a guest appearance at the end to add to the discussion, so you still get your does of the Dominator.

Fuel Conservation Methods

DwD 0438: Fuel Conservation Methods

When endurance racing, the race can often be won or lost by the pit stop strategy and sometimes the race breaks down in such a way that your team can be a few laps short from what is needed to avoid another pit stop and that can make or break the victory. Ben and Bill discuss some of their favorite ways to save a little gas and extend the number of laps and maybe sneak out a victory when you may not be the fastest in your class.

Blind Corners

DwD 0436: Blind Corners

One of the things that a lot of beginners have trouble with is when they are approaching a corner of the track that does not allow the driver to see around the corner. While this can be disconcerting, this should not be a big deal for you on track. Ben offers up some great advice on dealing with blind corners and starts with the ever important topic of the safety of going through blind corners. We hope this helps you at you next rack event.
