GHIT 0437: Dion von Moltke Returns and We Talk All Things Racing
Dion von Moltke has raced professionally at some of the highest levels and has started an online coaching and education coaching business that includes some of the best racing (and other) coaches across the globe. We have been subscribers since day one and never fail to see improvements after every session and know of nothing that can compare in value for the dollar and minute. During this episode Dion discusses topics including:
1) What separates a good racer from a still learning racer?
2) What are the things that we will never stop working on?
3) Why should we work on a corner backwards?
4) What is the top priority of a particular corner and how to determine it
5) Feel references vs visual references (or both) and how to get better at references
6) How to most quickly learn a track or a new car
7) Why should I wait until I have perfected my driving and car to get a coach? (100% facetiously worded)
8) How do you prioritize what to work on with your personal driving or with students, and even more advanced students
9) Hitting target spots vs hitting target spots with correct car angle and weight loading
10)If I get oversteer or understeer does that mean I just blew the corner?
11)How to drive around understeer
12)Why is the slow point of a corner so important
13)Proper footwork through a turn (with a manual transmission)
14)The 5 types of braking zones (and why they matter)
