[QUOTE="mu22stang, post: 9762392, member: 81298"] I suggest doing as many ride-alongs as you can. It's good to catch a ride with your instructor to create a link between his advice and his driving style. Riding with someone that has a similar car is helpful, too. Even if it's not a Terminator, the information you will get in the seat of your pants from the passenger seat of a car with similar weight, suspension geometry, cockpit controls, etc, is invaluable. I probably cut 3 seconds out of my lap time at MSR Houston after riding with my instructor. Given, it was my second OT event so picking up that much speed in one weekend was a bit easier, but I couldn't believe the lateral grip he attained and speed he carried through the turns in street tires, especially around the carousel. Next time out, I used that memory bank of what I felt as a point of reference and worked to it the rest of the weekend. [/QUOTE]
