BLEND LINE!!!
I realize these were charity laps and not a DE, which probably makes it more difficult to instruct. (Your friend is there to enjoy a few laps - not have you nitpick every turn). That being said, it looks like you did a pretty good job of instructing your friend. Instructing DE isn't much different. We think because we drive balls out, our students will too. In fact most students are slower than we remember being. They don't have a track car yet; it's their daily driver, so they far more concerned with bringing their car back in one piece than we are. You should consider instructing.

Yeah, it's all about trying to use the whole track, LOOK UP, and be SMOOTH. I'd suck as an instructor, I cussed way too much to be motivating
