TKO MOTORSPORTS TEN CHEAP SIMPLE WAYS TO GET FASTER AND GO FASTER
1. If you’re a serious amateur driver competing in a series fitness is a huge part of going faster. Cardio, strength training, reaction drills, stretching will all help you get faster and go faster
2. Professional driver training. 500-800.00 per day may sound like alot of money but the cost per second of improvement from pro driver training is far cheaper then any go fast parts you can purchase to produce the same results
3. Data acquisition /on board data. These days good on board data systems are incredibly cheap. From simple Go pros, and aim solo, to the new more advanced Garmin catalyst. These tools are great ways to get ab idea of what your doing right and wrong and where you can improve.
4. Basic good old fashioned car set up. Nut bolt, balance, camber, caster, toe , aero. Your car is like your dance partner, if you cant lead your partner and have fun and be comfortable you might as well sit this one out.
5. Karting is by far the best training tool available to any driver. F1 drivers to amateurs use karts as a training tool. Relative to running your car on track karting is the best bargain going, but it may not be cheap and simple for many of us on a strict racing or track budget.
6. Race notes/ logging your data. Pen and paper, note book, or TKO motorsports set up sheets which are free to any TKO customer. If you have notes on what didn’t work its much easier to figure out what does work
7. Tire pressures. Correct hot and cold tire pressures; Nitrogen in tires
8. Comfort. If your not comfortable you can never be fast
9. Smooth. One of the easiest ways to go faster many times is just to slow down and be smooth
10. Never compromise on safety. Motorsports are extremely dangerous compromising safety to go faster is always a recipe for disaster.
11. Practice makes perfect. Any seat time is good seat time
