It looks like you have really progressed with the throttle over the last few months. This plan encompasses all the aspects of the go faster pedal. It is key to treat this pedal with respect and precision regardless of the power of the car and you now understand the power the throttle has on tuning the car too. Keep at it as there are still times where you are rushing to 100% and others where you are too patient. Practice makes perfect. You are basically through all the key training plans. Next week instead of a specific plan we will look back in detail and focus on key driving areas with a specific car and track.

Extra -

You are carrying too much speed exiting turn 1, causing you to be on a more shallow entry for the next corner, costing you time as your line is compromised and you are unable to carry the same speed, and you have to delay getting back on full throttle. Try carry less speed on the exit of turn 1, so you can position more towards the middle of the track, in order to get a better run into the next corner, maintaining a higher minimum speed, and gaining more time overall. - Example

----------------------

13/05/2026
Some more work is needed here before we pass this assignment. There are some mistakes during throttle application that need to be fixed. Have a look at the advice bellow and give this assignment another go. Good luck and have fun!

Extra -

You aren't aggressive enough when getting back on power. Have a look at this linked segment (example) and see how the reference lap quickly applies the throttle, while you apply slowly and carefully. This costs you time under acceleration and down the straights. A bit of work here and you'll see several tenths come off your lap times 💪 - example

----------------------

30/04/2026
There’s some fine-tuning to do here. In a few corners, you’re dropping off the throttle too early on exit, which hints that you might be over-braking or not carrying enough momentum through the turn. Work on maintaining a smoother flow by adjusting your braking points and ensuring you're rolling more speed into the corner. This will help you stay on the throttle consistently and make the most of your exit without backing off prematurely.

Extra -

You are releasing the throttle completely on the exit, causing your speed to drop significantly and cost you a considerable amount of time. In the final corner, you are coming on throttle too quickly, causing you to have to release it again before applying it again. Have a look at this segment, avoid coming completely off throttle on corner exits, and for the final corner, try be more patient before getting on throttle to avoid having to get off and on it again mid corner. - Example

----------------------

16/04/2026
You have exhibited mastery of the racing line, consistently choosing the optimal path through corners to maximise speed and efficiency. Your precision in hitting the apex and maintaining the ideal trajectory from entry to exit ensures minimal distance travelled and maximum momentum. Your ability to adapt to varying track conditions while maintaining the perfect line demonstrates a deep understanding of car dynamics and track geometry. Smooth, controlled steering inputs and flawless execution of line choice significantly contribute to your competitive lap times, showcasing a high level of skill and situational awareness essential for peak performance.

Extra -

You sometimes exit the corner towards the middle of the inside of the track, instead of using the full track width on the outside, costing you significant time. Try get on throttle earlier to carry more speed on the exit, so the car can naturally run towards the edge of the track, gaining you more time with the extra speed. - Example

----------------------

02/04/2026
Nice stuff. With all you have learnt in the last few months you are beginning to master the braking game. We looked at timing, pressure, speed and trailbraking and you have really progressed in all these areas. As always there is no such thing as perfect so keep working at it because you can always improve. Keep looking at the telemetry to get clues.

Extra -

Be careful with applying too much brake pressure in some of the fast speed corners. In the final corner at Circuit De Barcelona, you applied too much pressure on the brakes, which hurt your exit speed not only for the final corner, but the whole straight until you get to Turn 1 again, costing you significant time. Try and apply less brake pressure to maintain a higher minimum speed and gain more time. - Example

----------------------

18/03/2026
Hi, apologies for the delay. Some more work is needed here before we move on. There are a few areas that need improvement, have a look at the advice bellow and give this assignment another go.

Extra -

Your brake shape is quite square at the moment, from 0 to 100% super quickly (this is good), holding peak preassure, but then it's in instant lift from 100% back to 0% braking. This can upset the cars balance and isn't optimal for weight distrubustion. Work on trail braking more into corners to keep the weight on the front wheels of the car. - example

----------------------

04/03/2026
Hi, apologies for the delay. Your lift off the accelerator is really good, there is no overlap with the brake and there isn't a big gap between the lift of the throttle and application of the brake. Well done. We'll move onto the next skill now. Good luck and have fun!

Extra -

Currently, there is no trail braking into corners. This is really important to finding time as it allows you to take more speed into corners. Trail braking helps to keep the weight on the front of the car through corners which gives the tyres a little more grip. Have a go a trail braking into corners and see how you get on. - example

----------------------

19/02/2026
The steering is coming off too quickly in several corners, which means you're straightening the car before you've fully exited the turn. Hold a bit more patience.

Extra -

Try not to lift off way before you brake, this lag time is time you could still be accelerating, instead you are coasting. Unless you are saving fuel for a race stint there is no real benefit to this strategy - certainly not in lap time. Example

‍

----------------------

04/02/2026
To refine your vehicle control, focus on smooth steering transitions when exiting a turn. Instead of forcing the wheel back into position, allow it to naturally return to neutral. This process, known as unwinding, involves gently easing your grip and letting the wheel slip through your hands in a controlled way. To perfect this, practice with your hands at the 9 and 3 o'clock positions, ensuring that the wheel self-corrects with minimal effort as the car straightens. By doing so, you'll not only improve handling but also promote even tire wear. Precision in your steering inputs is key to mastering this skill, which is essential for acing both this and future assessments.

Extra -

Brake harder and faster even on the fast corners, try a quick dab instead of your currently longer ease on and off, test these two styles. Example

‍

----------------------

21/01/2026
When exiting a turn, it's crucial to allow the steering wheel to return to its neutral position naturally, rather than forcing it. This technique, known as unwinding, should be done by easing your grip and letting the wheel slide through your hands in a controlled manner. You are still not quite there. To correct this, practice smooth hand movements at the 9 and 3 o'clock positions, ensuring that as the car straightens, the wheel corrects itself with minimal resistance. This will enhance vehicle control and promote even tire wear. Remember, precision in steering inputs leads to better overall vehicle handling. Mastery of this skill will be essential for passing this and future assessments.

Extra -

Avoid hitting the brake pedal multiple times in one braking zone. Ideally you want to hit it firmly to begin with and then ease off as things slow down. Hitting it more than once suggests you broke too early. Example

‍

----------------------

07/01/2026
We are ready to assess your practice from last week. Please provide us some laps and we'll check again on your next turnover day. To really learn a track in Sim racing, from our analysis of users data between 30-50 laps in a week are required to improve significantly (depending on track length).

The next Instructor notes will be provided when we have sessions to review. Thanks, and looking forward to seeing your improvements. 😁

‍

‍

Extra -

No assessment.

----------------------

24/12/2025
Your braking technique is decent; you've got the timing down pretty well. However, there's still work to be done on how you apply the brakes for smoother control. Your understanding of brake bias is adequate, but there's potential to improve how you use it for better cornering. Keep working on these details.

Extra -

Currently, the main challenge is your tendency to back off the throttle instead of committing to full 100% acceleration. A small adjustment to your line, hugging the apex more closely, will greatly improve this. Example

‍

----------------------

11/12/2025
Your turn in point was extremely good, there was no drifting towards the corner apex before you fully commit to the turn in.  This turn in point determines the speed at which you enter a corner. Turning in too early or too late can result in either scrubbing off too much speed or carrying too much speed into the corner, making it difficult to maintain control of the vehicle. You handle this very well and not surprisingly your corner segment times are generally very good.

Extra - Avoid hitting the brake pedal multiple times in one braking zone. Ideally you want to hit it firmly to begin with and then ease off as things slow down. Hitting it more than once suggests you broke too early. Example

‍

----------------------

26/11/2025
Decent driving. Your consistency, knowledge of the track and overall racing technique is looking strong. Obviously this is reflected in the lap times. Congratulations. All good drivers will take the time to examine their telemetry. When you are drive so well, sometimes it is hard to see exactly the mistakes that are taking place on track. Just the knowledge that sometime wasn't perfect is keeping you grinding out the laps. This is great and instils needed muscle memory however, we'd advise getting dirty in the telemetry a bit more. Find common issues, or weak corners so when you are next on track you can hone in on needed areas. Train smart and train hard! Good luck.

Extra - One area to target is improving your minimum speed in corners, which relies heavily on braking later and staying committed to the throttle through the turn. This will tighten the gap in your corner exit performance. For instance, experimenting with a slightly later braking zone can unlock more consistent speed retention. Example

‍

----------------------

12/11/2025
Unfortunately still not a pass this time. You still need to improve your trail braking like last time, but in these past weeks you've also often been too early on the throttle (example). That is sometimes enough to alter the car's weight balance during the corner and affect your exit speed, also needing more time to hit full throttle there.
Once more on the brakes, there are also some segments where you're a bit on and off during the braking zone, which lowers your efficiency at slowing the car down there (example).
Work on these things a bit more, really focus on getting the car pointing towards the exit on the apex so you can accelerate quicker there. You're usually quite smooth on the throttle, so that should be quite easy for you. Also avoid being on and off the brakes on the braking zones, focus on getting a consistent amount of brake pressure there to keep the car balanced.

Extra - Those sharp inputs on the brakes are still noticeable. We'd like to know if there are any hardware limitations, weather you're using am Xbox controller or some other sort of input device that might cause inputs like that. If you want, you can send an email to keith@tracktitan.io with your answer to your preferred input device so we can take that into account on future assignments.

----------------------

31/10/2025
This time was a bit close, but unfortunately still not a pass. There are two main things you need to work on:

• Racing line, mainly in corner complexes and chicanes, you're often going too deep after the first apex which gives you a worse entry into the second corner and a slower exit from the whole section overall. There were also a couple of segments where you can use more track at the corner entry;
• Braking, you're often very on and off the brakes. Sharp inputs with a serious lack of trail braking that's hindering you during the turn-in phase of the corner. Also in faster corners, you're braking very hard with quick and sharp inputs all the way to 100% brake pressure which seriously lowers your corner speed.

Work on these issues to really improve your performance on track and move up to your next assignment. Good luck!

Extra -

Currently that lack of trail braking is a big issue that's sometimes lowering your corner entry speed too much. You're often aware of your lack of speed there and compensate with a bit of throttle. That can have the negative effect of raising your speed too much at the apex and that delays the acceleration on the corner exit (example).
Try to avoid touching the throttle before the apex and invest in controlling your speed by modulating the brakes as you turn into the corner. Trail braking is really one of those things that takes time to master but is a real game changer when you finally do!

----------------------

15/10/2025
It is not uncommon for the third combination assessment to take a while. The main issues are that each segment has a couple of problems that need addressing. Racing line choice was often out and thus setting yourself up for a good exit was at times extremely hard. A lot of invalid laps as well is a sign that you are trying to push yourself just that little bit too much. It is better to drop your pace just a little to get yourself race ready. One exceptional hotlap is great but 20 laps of fast consistent lapping will win you more races. You'll also find that when you have that consistency you'll be able to adapt better from one segment to the next or even within a corner. You'll understand your car better and be able to make micro adjustments with a confidence that brings down your lap times. Train smart and good things will come.

Extra - You're sacrificing potential speed in the middle of turns by not cutting the apex as sharply as possible. Maximise the track's width on entry, at the apex, and on exit when the car is under control and stable. Example

‍

----------------------

26/09/2025
Well done, you have successfully completed your setup work. Your dedication, hard work, and hopefully new understanding of setups have allowed you to pass this milestone. Your grasp of testing different setups in sim racing demonstrates your commitment to improving your skills. Congratulations on your achievement and good luck for your next Combination Assessment.

Extra - Try to be less erratic with the throttle, smaller motions will help. This is tricky but when you ease off the throttle, you often take the throttle to 20-30% pressure. Try to use smaller movements to avoid slowing the car too much. Example

‍

----------------------

10/09/2025
Your consistency of reaching 100% throttle as quickly as the reference lap was reasonably good. You are getting the hang of a technique here that many drivers find hard. There is still room for a faster application so keep working on it. Go through the items on the Previous Plans list that you struggle with most and you'll be knocking even more time off your laps.

Extra - Delay getting on the throttle too early, this is causing you to understeer and in turn forcing you to lift off the throttle. Wait a little, then be quicker and smoother with the throttle pedal. Example

‍

----------------------

28/08/2025
Another hard assignment but use the information and the practice that you have been doing for the last few months and apply this on track. Be patient and then accelerate quickly. You need to be questioning whether your line was correct, if you rotated the car enough, is your wheel movement not too exaggerated. Work hard on these areas and refer back to the telemetry data after each session to find the flaws in your corners. You are often trying to get on the gas just that little bit too early.

Extra - To gain an edge, work on holding higher speeds through corners by delaying braking and keeping the throttle engaged longer. This approach will minimize the delta on corner exits, giving you a stronger drive onto the straights. As an example, maintaining steady throttle pressure through the apex can lead to a noticeable boost in exit momentum. Example

‍

----------------------

13/08/2025
A nice improvement here. You show a smoother movement on the majority of segments. Just be aware that it is very easy to slip on this area. That smoothness of steering (as well as braking and throttle) will help you maintain a balance / weighted car. This combined with ensuring your use the full width of the track might help shave another few tenths off your time.

Extra - You often accelerate too late and that cost you a lot of time. You aren't as fast to 100% with your throttle which is affecting your top speed on the subsequent straight. Practice a fast but smooth acceleration all the way to 100% throttle using as much of the track exit as available so that you can have as straight a wheel as possible. This will allow the car to use most of it's power for forward acceleration. Example

‍

----------------------

30/07/2025
This is still a difficult assignment for you, really try to focus on the way you're releasing the brakes, do it gradually and at the same rate you're increasing the steering angle instead of abruptly letting go of the pedal.
Imagine a string attached between your brake pedal and your steering wheel. As you turn into the corner, the string will wrap around your wheel and pull on the brake pedal. That will make you brake less and less as the string keeps you from using 100% brake pressure.
We'll move on for now, but will revisit this assignment in your next Combination Assessment.

Extra - Remember that trail braking will influence how early you can accelerate out of the corner. Looking at this example, you can see how the lack of trail braking made you carry too much speed at the apex, that made you go a bit wider than the reference lap. If you check segment 10 too, the wider exit from segment 9 affected your approach to this corner, which caused you to lift off the throttle instead of being able to keep your foot down.
‍

----------------------

17/07/2025
You are just not understanding the concept. You are releasing the brake almost instantly. Look at what the reference driver is doing. We want to see a defined smooth release of the brake pedal to enable you to transfer the tyre loads most efficiently.

Extra - Avoid hitting the brake pedal multiple times in one braking zone. Ideally you want to hit it firmly to begin with and then ease off as things slow down. Hitting it more than once suggests you broke too early. Example

‍

----------------------

02/07/2025
Please drive more laps.  It isn't possible to get a fair and true reflection of this assessment without at least 30-50 laps being completed.  The instructors are ready to help you when you are ready. 

Good luck and have fun on track 💪

Extra - No assessment.

----------------------

20/06/2025
This is a hard skill to develop but it is very useful for understanding the weight distribution of your car. Also, as the plan states it gives a slightly extended time at top speed on the straights. Practice hard and try to feel how the car reacts as you slowly release the brake. Remember, as a guide to gauge finishing releasing the brake as you reach near the apex.

Extra - Your times are OK and it is the trail braking that is holding you back at the moment. It is a big shift in how you have probably driven for a while and thus will take time but keep at it. If you have a loadcell brake pedal you can set it to need more power to brake this gives you more finesse in easing off the brake pedal. It is possible on most pedals, just can be a little harder to achieve. This example clearly indicates the benefits of trail braking. Look at your speed dropping much lower than the reference lap and the change in Diff to Ref chart - example

----------------------

04/06/2025
You are close but are not trailbraking as much as I would like to see. Your brake pedal inputs re releasing too quickly as you turn in. This can unsettle the car. Try to extend the time of trailbraking into the apex further to spread the tyre load more evenly through the transition.

Extra - Work on improving your trail braking to enhance car control. Smoothly transitioning from heavy braking to a gentle release is essential for balance and grip. Apply sharp braking at the start, then ease off steadily as you turn into the corner, reaching zero brake pressure at the apex. For example, begin lifting off the brakes as you initiate steering to keep the car settled and grippy. Here's an example:

----------------------

21/05/2025
As more skills are added to the combination assessments they naturally become harder. Essentially there are more areas where errors can be seen. You did an extremely good job last week and managed to pass. If you look back at your telemetry you'll be able to spot small improvements that are needed. For example, sometimes just a slight hesitation on the throttle as you accelerate or missing a tight apex.

Extra - We've noticed that your trail braking can improve. In racing, being smooth is important to keep the car balanced and the grip levels high. While the first attack on the brakes is supposed to be very quick, releasing the brakes is a slow and smooth process. Try to start releasing the brakes at around the turn-in point and do it in a gradual motion until you reach the apex. Example

----------------------

07/05/2025
There were quite a few errors that need addressing. With this second combination assessment we are now looking at eight different factors that make up your driving prowess. Firstly look at your braking power as there is the opportunity to trail brake more (you'll learn more about this later. This will be impacting your lap times significantly as you are currently slowing the car down too much. It is so important to analyse your sessions. Without this analysis you'll always be second guessing how you are performing on track. The top drivers will be looking for small errors and keep of testing changes to the lines and braking technique to see if they can save time on a corner.

Extra - As mentioned above there are a couple of factors that are holding you back at the moment. You are driving well though and it is through continued analysis that you'll continue to learn and improve your lap times. Your lap times are pretty consistent at the moment but individual corners vary more - example

----------------------

24/04/2025
This is a pass and quite a good one. Sometimes you really hit the throttle perfectly. As always, it is about the consistency of this. It is common for throttle work to be a more evolved process. Trickier to master and stay focused. When you achieve a good acceleration point then you'll be half way to achieving the desired smooth acceleration with no lifting off.

Extra - One key area to focus on is maintaining higher minimum speeds, which largely comes down to braking later and staying on the throttle longer through corners. This approach will help you reduce the gap in your corner exit performance. For example, a slight delay in braking can make a noticeable difference in carrying momentum through turns. Example

----------------------

09/04/2025
This is still an hard area for you and more practice is needed. Slow your speed down a little (you can coast mid corner to gently slow your car) and then ensure that when you accelerate it is smooth without lifting off the throttle at all. When you have mastered this as a slower speed and get the feeling for a continual smooth acceleration then you can move back up to full race pace and try to control your acceleration again.

Extra - Try to be less erratic with the throttle, smaller motions will help. This is tricky but when you ease off the throttle, you often take the throttle to 20-30% pressure. Try to use smaller movements to avoid slowing the car too much. Example

----------------------

26/03/2025
Sorry for the delay on the update.
Your performance in this assignment was certainly promising, but we think you should work a bit more on this skill. Your throttle input on the corner exits is looking great, you're accelerating quickly and in one swift motion. However, before that, during the braking zones and corner entry, we're noticing some throttle inputs that can become muscle memory and if that happens it'll be very difficult for you to come back and re-train yourself in the future, so let's attack that right away. We'll address these issues below.
‍

Extra - There are two stages of the corner that we need to address, the braking zone and the corner entry.
Looking at the braking zones, you're often having these sharp bursts of acceleration (example). While some cars/setups with a nervous rear end do need some throttle to keep them stable while braking, that'll only be at most 40% or 50% throttle and anything above that will increase the braking distance. We also noticed that those bursts also matched with when you were downshifting, some cars do need a blip on the throttle to rev match on the downshifts, but GT3s do that automatically so you don't need to worry about that. Really avoid using the throttle on the braking zones, try to literally lift off and leave some space between your foot and the pedal to practise this while you're braking.
Now, on the corner entry you're also accelerating a bit sometimes. This can be both a good and a bad thing. It's good because you realize you're entering the corner a bit too slowly, but this acceleration can become muscle memory and as soon as you perfect your speed for the corner entry, you'll still be hitting the throttle just a little and then carry too much speed into the corner, which is what happened in this segment. Yes, your speed was just a little low, but it was close to the reference lap and you could compensate on the exit, however that burst of acceleration ended up costing you time on the corner exit too. In your practice sessions, try to focus on your trail braking, brake earlier and a bit lighter if you need, to make sure you enter the corners with the correct speed and avoid touching the throttle before the apex as much as you can.
Your lap count is very high, so keep up the good work and don't forget to check out the telemetry from time to time!

We also noticed that your logger isn't on the latest version and this might be affecting your sessions that are being recorded.  This article explains how to upgrade to the latest version, if the system hasn't managed to automatically upgrade you.

Please ensure you also delete the folders that are indicated in the article.

----------------------

12/03/2025
Nicely done, you show that consistency is certainly there. Work on this more with more longer sessions of 20+ laps as ones concentration sometimes affects ones consistency in these longer sessions. This skill is important as you work towards your second Combination Assessment.

Extra - You're using your brakes almost like an On/Off button, that's resulting in slowing down too much on the corner entry, then sometimes you end up carrying too much speed at the apex which makes you lose time on the exit. You really need to invest in your trail braking, you can see in this example that you don't need to use full brake pressure on the braking zone and are able to carry much more corner entry speed if you manage to carry the brakes into the corner.
Remember to brake sharply at first, but then gradually ease off the brakes as you increase your steering angle.

----------------------

27/02/2025
Your racing lines are starting to look like you know what you are doing. In most situations we want to open up the entry and exit of the corner so that when we clip the apex the path we travel has the largest possible radius. This allows you to carry the most possible speed through the corner. There are exceptions, for example in corner complexes, where sometimes a compromise is required. There are a few corners where you are still entering too tight, which costs you minimum speed. Lets keep working on this as you go into the next challenge - Consistency.
Please can you make sure you are on the latest logger via this link:
https://intercom.help/track-titan/en/articles/7964105-how-do-i-update-my-track-titan-logger
Extra - Here there is a small kink before the main braking zone. You are slowing too much in the kink. Try to get the car straightened before the initial braking phase, as braking in the kink can unsettle the car and encourage the inside front to lock. Example

----------------------

13/02/2025
Please drive more laps. It isn't possible to get a fair and true reflection of this assessment without at least 30-50 laps being completed.  The instructors are ready to help you when you are ready.  Good luck and have fun on track. Please can you also make sure you are on the latest logger via this link:

Extra - We've noticed that your trail braking can improve. In racing, being smooth is important to keep the car balanced and the grip levels high. While the first attack on the brakes is supposed to be very quick, releasing the brakes is a slow and smooth process. Try to start releasing the brakes at around the turn-in point and do it in a gradual motion until you reach the apex. Example

----------------------

30/01/2025
You've got a solid foundation with your lines, though fine-tuning you could make them even sharper. Braking is on point, but there's potential in the chicanes for better acceleration. Aim for quick spurts of speed where you can, keeping in mind that how you exit these sections defines your success. When possible, consider only partially lifting off the throttle instead of fully disengaging, perhaps by 30-50%. Above all, focus on your exit speed, as it's the key to better lap times.

Extra - We've observed that you could enhance your trail braking technique. Maintaining braking smoothness is key in racing to keeping the car balanced and maximising grip. You should apply the brakes sharply at first, but then release them gradually. Begin easing off the brakes right as you start turning into the corner, and continue this slow release until you hit the apex. Here's an example:

----------------------

16/01/2025
A good combination assessment. There were many good laps exhibited, and the majority of the racing skills learned have been displayed across multiple segments. There are some areas where improvements are needed, which will lower your lap times. Firstly, work on refining your cornering techniques. Mastering this will significantly benefit your overall performance. Secondly, there are several instances where your gear choice could be improved. Learning truly comes from driving, analyzing, and then driving again until you feel you've reached a plateau, then analyzing again. This habit will really help you improve as quickly as possible
‍

Extra - One key area to focus on is maintaining higher minimum speeds, which largely comes down to braking later and staying on the throttle longer through corners. This approach will help you reduce the gap in your corner exit performance. For example, a slight delay in braking can make a noticeable difference in carrying momentum through turns. Example

----------------------

02/01/2025
It is a hard task to bring all these skills together at the same time. Keep up the work, it is worth persevering. By concentrating on the important of the braking point and power will make it possible to turn your attention more to the throttle. It is at this point that you'll see the biggest improvements in your times. The braking points and apex work suffered in this combination assessment. Concentrate on these two areas to move onto the next training plan.

Extra - You've made good progress, but it's important to address your tendency to brake early. While being cautious is understandable, braking too early can lead to a loss of momentum, affecting your overall lap time. To optimise your performance, try to identify braking points that allow you to carry more speed into the corners. Gradually delay your braking to find the sweet spot where you're slowing down just enough without sacrificing speed. With practice, you'll find the right balance and see noticeable improvements in your lap times. Keep refining your technique—you've got this! Example

Good corner gear choices in general. Sometimes you are one gear off the reference lap, try testing with the different cars that you drive. Try and compare the deltas to get a feeling for whether there is a big difference on your lap times.
So you've reached a milestone - well done! Your next weeks training, will be assessed on how well you perform with all the plans that you have driven so far. You are currently doing really well and should find this straight forward, just strive to increase your consistency and push for slightly quicker lap times. Good luck! Time to bring all that you've learnt together now in the next assessment....

Extra - Do try to be more consistent with your brake pressure. We let it slide on the last turnover day since you were adjusting the brake pressure to hit a good speed for the corner, but in this example you hit the braking point perfectly and went wide because you lifted off the brakes.

We have a bit of a strange situation here. Your brake pressure is often inconsistent, but we can see that is for a "good" reason. When a driver is still unsure about the braking point, it's common to adjust the brake pressure throughout the braking zone in order to hit an optimal entry speed into a corner. You appear to be doing this and to judge your speed well for each corner, so we'll give you a pass for that. Just beware that it can backfire slightly like it did in this example.
Also, try to be a little less aggressive when your adjusting the brake pressure, those big changes in brake pressure can cause some nasty weight shifts that can destabilize your car.

Extra - You're sometimes carrying too much speed at the mid-corner phase (near the apex), this then makes you slower on the exit since you need more time to reach full throttle to avoid going wide. Be patient, try to avoid pressing the throttle too early in the corner (before the apex) and try to carry the brakes a bit further into the corner to help you carry some speed on the corner entry while also slowing down for the apex - Example.

Fantastic racing line and you are hitting nearly all of your apex's. Great job using the whole width of the track. The smoother you can be with your racing line the more you can distribute grip to all four tyres. There are a few areas you can slowly tweak over time on your entry and exit lines but you are nailing the clipping points mid-corner. Keep it up!

Extra - The biggest thing you could work on is carrying minimum speed, mostly through braking later and not lifting off as much through corners. This is giving you a big delta in corner exits. Example

Very nice, your braking points are sharp and spot on. Important! You have clearly got good reference markers. There are a few areas we can work on over the coming weeks but you are already flying.  Braking is critical to set up the whole dynamic of a corner. If you don't get this right it is impossible to make up for it with other areas of driving. Next up is your first racing line technique, good luck and keep knocking out those laps! 💪

Extra - Here you go too deep into the first part of the chicane. This makes the final left much tighter and means you cannot accelerate out early enough. You lose time from this mistake. Compromise in chicanes is key to the best overall time. Example

Great to have you onboard and hope you are ready to do some training! The process is super simple. Every two weeks you'll have an assigned task which your instructor will set based on our training schedule. Each task will be an important driving technique that you'll need to master in order to progress to the next discipline.

Having assessed and written hundreds of training plans, Track Titan instructors have analysed our drivers achievements and pitfalls and the results show that a consistent application of the driving techniques is crucial to progressing as a good, fast and safe driver. Therefore, every two weeks you'll be tested for consistency and quality of the chosen technique. If the instructor feels that more time on track is required to progress then no problem, hone your skills, dig deep and you'll soon pass to the next discipline.

We have assigned you a turnover day, the instructors will then assess your driving and provide your score for the assigned task and your progress. This will be vary, but is normally available within one to three days.

Please follow the advice in the assigned task and practice this race technique as much as you can in the next fortnight. Remember, referring back to the reference lap and in particular the telemetry data to see how you need to perform to perfect a skill will aid your progress and competence.

The Instructors will look through the sessions and laps you have completed over the last fourteen days. Priority will be given to hot lapping and time trial laps if available. We understand that with changing conditions (tyre wear, weather, fuel load etc.) the ability to perform consistently and with quality similar to the reference lap alters. This is taken into account with all our assessments. Needless to say, the more laps driven the better your training and practice will be and the better the understanding of your current abilities.

If you have a different motivational goal, please let us know and we'll change it from "Improve driving technique"

Enjoy the training, enjoy the journey.
‍
Yours sincerely,
The Instructors
