Not bad for first time at all. Try givin a little more gas in the corners... don't be afraid to test the limit. I see you oversteered a little at 0:30, which is fine especially if u keep a little more on the gas and get out of it smoothly- its all about momentum. Cool vid!

cool, quick course tho

1. Watch the "crazy hands."
2. Seems like you tried coasting into the corners... only to find mid-corner that you hadn't taken enough speed off. Really prevented you from turning in and getting on the gas earlier as you were pushing wide.


Try running up to the corner, braking harder (like people suggested), then back on the gas.

People say you should either be on the brakes or the gas. There was too much coasting, hoping (not hopping), and pushing. It will come with getting familiar with the car's grip.

Welcome to the addiction! Not bad for the first time out!
