Default Any video tutorials on driving technique?

OK, I've read books, read online text, etc, on racing techniques. I think I have an idea on how to do racing lines and things like how to heel toe, but are there any online lessons on racing technique? I think reading about some of the techniques isn't enough, and I'm still unclear on a lot of things. The closest thing I've come so far to seeing a video tutorial is watching someone play Gran Turismo 4.

Probably better to post in racing and competition

You can find a lot of videos that show the pedals and the driver. Those should help. Good luck!

Oh and Gran Turismo is definately a great place to learn .

I think there was a companion video to the excellent book "Going Faster!" by Carl Lopez (?) of the Skip Barber school. Book is worth it alone.

the video is just a tiny morsle, more of the school, than book. It is still interesting from what i recall....good, but it is not anything encyclopedic, like the book.

i still have it....$5.00 plus S/H. minus 10% for member, 1/2 off for Speedventures participant/member

Scott Mansel (driver 61 has a good series).

https://www.youtube.com/c/Driver61/videos

Screen cap of some of his good tutorial content. He has a lot of overall good driving content, but these are probably more so what you're looking for.
