One of the reasons racing drivers are pretty good daily drivers and don't get into accidents very often. They don't teach you that in normal driving school
As a bike rider, it's far easier to take corners faster and navigate traffic better by looking as far forward as necessary. If you're looking at the turn you're on, you overthink your inputs and come out wrong to take the next road/corner.
Literally the FIRST THING my Dad told me when he started to teach me to drive was “DRIVE AHEAD” meaning look where you’re going to be, not where you already are. Still one of the best pieces of advice I’ve ever received.

Looking up is just good driving, on the streets too. A wider field of vision lets you anticipate things coming up before you get there, so you have more time to plan.

Some observations, not an invitation to any flame wars or arguing :) 5:42 - forgot to mention throttle steering-have a look at the video of Max Verstappen is doing with his feet in a sim rig lap of Bahrain F1 track. Throttle steering is a key skill when you are wrangling a front wheel driven steed :) 6:40 very few race cars achieve perfect static corner weight distribution. Using your steering, brakes and throttle constantly changes dynamic weight distribution - this is why sometimes you need to break AND accelerate at the same time in corners 9:00 - yes, look ahead but that's just the basics, you always have to look where you want the car to end up on the track - there is a body motor functions connection with the eyesight and brain analysing it and it literary makes you steer the car in the best possible way if you are looking at reference points on the track where you want your car to be.

I had a racing wheel/pedal setup that I played Forza 6 with long before I had my license. It's incredible how much practicing on a "racing simulator" helped me understand things that regular/daily driving doesn't require.
Something you can use to your advantage is something called "target fixation." The way this helps is because when you look at something and walk or move in its direction your body will automatically move you to walk closer or move closer towards it, it also applies to driving and dirtbiking
This may work for cars but target fixation can be dangerous when riding motorcycles. It is true that if you fixate then that’s the direction you will go. That includes the ditch, telephone pole, the back end of the car in front of you, or the curb. You should always be scanning the area in front of you when riding on the street. I make mental notes constantly to myself to look around when riding because I am very prone to target fixating on the car in front of me rather than looking past it to see dangers ahead of that car.
These basics are similar to what is taught in a motorcycle track class - look far ahead, use smooth inputs (though the smooth feet are lower on the list), and apply throttle, braking and turning in a proportionate manner. Those habits are useful on the street, not only for going fast. In motorcycle classes, I don't remember anything about a string.
That's cool about vision. In art school we were taught "to look where your pencil is going to be not where it is". So to clarify we weren't "visualizing" we were physically "looking" at the point on the paper where our stroke "will end" not "would end".
That smooth braking technique took me more than one year to get right and I'm still making mistakes sometimes. Braking is one of the more difficult things to perfect in racing and it really makes the difference between average and good drivers.
Great video. I wish they would teach these tactics in regular drivers Ed. Increasing your field of vision is something I learned a long time ago. I was taught how to drive by a police officer haha. They told me how important it was to always be thinking 1 step ahead. Eyes should be fixed farther down the road the more your speed increases. If everyone implemented that tactic during normal driving we would have a lot less accidents. Also cell phones, yeah don’t look at cell phones while driving. The moment I see someone do that all their driving credibility goes out the window. It’s like failing a test for not writing your name at the top. Immediately fail. Anyways I’m always looking to improve my driving skills, these techniques not only help you drive faster, but have saved my life on several occasions. The increased field of vision tactic has helped me avoid I don’t know how many accidents during daily drives. Excellent advice, great video.
This is one of the best technical video i’ve ever wathced, you really did it seriously and explain & visualise easily. I think this is more beneficial for motocycle users since all techniques must be used whenever they get on a bike, even on a small scooter.
“Extend your field of vision”. Also classified in commercial vehicle driving school as “Aiming high on steering”. You always look out in front of you and establish your eye lead time, point of decision etc. Thought I started driving my e36 and e30 after I’d gone to commercial driving school. That proves it right here lol.
I would honesty like to see this same experiment on a “neutral” track neither of you guys have hella track time at. He has the “pro” advantage and he had home track advantage im a huge fan do it again lol
I got a Logitech G923 4 months ago for Gran Turismo, when I first used it my feet wernt smooth, my hands wernt smooth, my focus was alright. I have noticed these past 4 months my throttle and brake input has gotten better, my steering has gotten better. I'm going to be 100% honest you just have to consistently practice and not give up eventually you'll teach yourself.
its crazy to me that all of this stuff ive already unconsciously learned and implemented into my irl driving from forza, constantly racing every weekend with multiple different drivers each more competitive than the last really works at least for me
Regarding the tyres and being smooth, the way I had it explained was to imagine someone passing you a heavy box. If they drop it into your hands, your hand will move down with the weight until you adjust to the weight of the box or it could even slip through your hands and drop it. However, if someone passes you the box and you have time to recognise how heavy it really is before taking the full weight of it, you’ll be steadier
this literally one of THE best beginner tutorials for hitting the race track first times or having first contact with motorsports i have ever seen.... Guys super well done - like always. *written by professional race instructor from germany :P. lets ad that real racing is looking a bit moooore... "hectical" inside the car, an a feet pedal use is recomandable in terms of faster change from gas to brake aand the use of cross braking. BUUUD i am impressed by this video !
As a motorcycle rider, the most important thing to know is: you go where you look. So always look THROUGH the corner and look at the spot you want to end up at. This goes hand in hand with target fixation. In a lot of accidents, you notice that the rider is looking at what it is trying to avoid and actually drives straight into it.
Love how you basically described truck driving when u went about improving your lap speeds . Look ahead, check. Smooth imput, check And I don't remember the third one but probably implemented in some way 2 😅
Great video! I am an immature racer and life long car enthusiast. This video is a great way to try and explain to some weekend warriors who want to do track days what is important to keep in mine. You all need to then try the Lucky Dog series and get some racing going.

God Bless you Donut
That's cool about vision. In art school we were taught "to look where your pencil is going to be not where it is". So to clarify we weren't "visualizing" we were physically "looking" at the point on the paper where our stroke "will end" not "would end".
That string theory is a fantastic way to visualize exactly how braking vs steering works
Whoa holy shit there's JPM, Rubens and Charles! Wow.
What's even better is a relative of DC at the very top!
David Coulthard?
@@DanielSilva-to8fo Yep. Fabian is a 2nd cousin.
Me an intellectual watching the map and timer while driving...
At Gran Turismo
Basically the Exotics racing safety course before you have to go drive haha. It is a lot of fun there, great vibes
So much fun. Drove everything but I didn’t have the money to just lap and lap till I beat Gordon Ramsey’s time lol
That smooth braking technique took me more than one year to get right and I'm still making mistakes sometimes. Braking is one of the more difficult things to perfect in racing and it really makes the difference between average and good drivers.
Great video. I wish they would teach these tactics in regular drivers Ed. Increasing your field of vision is something I learned a long time ago. I was taught how to drive by a police officer haha. They told me how important it was to always be thinking 1 step ahead. Eyes should be fixed farther down the road the more your speed increases. If everyone implemented that tactic during normal driving we would have a lot less accidents. Also cell phones, yeah don’t look at cell phones while driving. The moment I see someone do that all their driving credibility goes out the window. It’s like failing a test for not writing your name at the top. Immediately fail.
Anyways I’m always looking to improve my driving skills, these techniques not only help you drive faster, but have saved my life on several occasions. The increased field of vision tactic has helped me avoid I don’t know how many accidents during daily drives. Excellent advice, great video.
Wow, I've been driving like a pro all my life without noticing
Basically every motorcycle rider that don't follow those simple rules end up injured or dead
@@Erickzy haha was thinking the same (motorcycle rider here)
Guy: not only do you need smooth feet, you need smooth hands.
Caption: smooth electronic music.
😂
Hello, Donut Media, have a good day 🍀
Those intentional turns are so key, commiting to a line is so different to constantly adjusting. Easier said than done even in a sim.
This is one of the best technical video i’ve ever wathced, you really did it seriously and explain & visualise easily.
I think this is more beneficial for motocycle users since all techniques must be used whenever they get on a bike, even on a small scooter.
5:01 bruh 😂 I thought something else (that blur)😂
They be watching quality content
In the lap times is so good to see Rubens there heheheh
And the boy Jeremiah is not to behind
O menino Jeremias é bom rapaz kkkkkkkk
“Extend your field of vision”. Also classified in commercial vehicle driving school as “Aiming high on steering”. You always look out in front of you and establish your eye lead time, point of decision etc. Thought I started driving my e36 and e30 after I’d gone to commercial driving school. That proves it right here lol.
The driving school/track tutorial in GT Sport taught me a lot of how to corner and where to look 👀 during cornering
I would honesty like to see this same experiment on a “neutral” track neither of you guys have hella track time at. He has the “pro” advantage and he had home track advantage im a huge fan do it again lol
I would really like to see this on an autocross course. Its crazy how much info your eyes have to process when blasting through a sea of cones.
Never would I ever have thought to wear Space Jams to a track day 😂
I wouldn't have thought to wear a hat backwards inside.
Day 4 of asking for Up to Speed to return
Yes please
Day 1 of supporting you
Day 1 of saying that it will return on day 7 unless stated otherwise.
Ones I want are money pit and hi low. I’m not to into the up to speed one it’s cool but not my cup of tea.
They covered everything
I got a Logitech G923 4 months ago for Gran Turismo, when I first used it my feet wernt smooth, my hands wernt smooth, my focus was alright. I have noticed these past 4 months my throttle and brake input has gotten better, my steering has gotten better. I'm going to be 100% honest you just have to consistently practice and not give up eventually you'll teach yourself.
its crazy to me that all of this stuff ive already unconsciously learned and implemented into my irl driving from forza, constantly racing every weekend with multiple different drivers each more competitive than the last really works at least for me
Space jams go hard!!
Regarding the tyres and being smooth, the way I had it explained was to imagine someone passing you a heavy box. If they drop it into your hands, your hand will move down with the weight until you adjust to the weight of the box or it could even slip through your hands and drop it. However, if someone passes you the box and you have time to recognise how heavy it really is before taking the full weight of it, you’ll be steadier
this guy wearing J11's while he's racing in a gt3rs,
what a legend hahaha
this literally one of THE best beginner tutorials for hitting the race track first times or having first contact with motorsports i have ever seen.... Guys super well done - like always. *written by professional race instructor from germany :P. lets ad that real racing is looking a bit moooore... "hectical" inside the car, an a feet pedal use is recomandable in terms of faster change from gas to brake aand the use of cross braking. BUUUD i am impressed by this video !
As a motorcycle rider, the most important thing to know is: you go where you look. So always look THROUGH the corner and look at the spot you want to end up at. This goes hand in hand with target fixation. In a lot of accidents, you notice that the rider is looking at what it is trying to avoid and actually drives straight into it.
The soundtrack for this episode goes so hard
8:23 is where the eye tracking part starts if you only came to this video for that like me.
thanks king
O legal é ver o Rubinho com um dos melhores tempos da pista, dalhe rubinho e dalhe acelerados
Dá-lhe Rubinho KKKKK
Love how you basically described truck driving when u went about improving your lap speeds .
Look ahead, check.
Smooth imput, check
And I don't remember the third one but probably implemented in some way 2 😅
my flights/ travel plans just got booked to go to vegas to drive that exact car and now I am on youtube watching it on donut!!
0 dislikes, how it should be☺️

Great video! I am an immature racer and life long car enthusiast. This video is a great way to try and explain to some weekend warriors who want to do track days what is important to keep in mine. You all need to then try the Lucky Dog series and get some racing going.
Back in the 90s at my old track, we used to put a thin vinyl strip on the windshield for new drivers and tell then to keep their eyes above the line.
Chill out with them space jams homie im already getting naked
