| How do Speed Secrets Race Coaching help career oriented drivers? |
| If you are like many of the drivers that we work with who are looking to build a career in racing or enter a Pro event at some point, you have aggressive goals. Whether it is to finish top five in points, make the transition to a new race car or new racing series or even dominate and win the series that you have entered, a commonality here is that you are going to need a plan. Not just any plan, but a well thought out plan designed by an expert with specific tactics and strategies that will allow you to perform at your best every session, every track, every race…week in, week out. In addition if you are looking to build a career in auto racing, it will be very important that you learn faster than your competitors about all the areas that will help you develop into the Complete Driver with racing (race craft), testing, physical, mental, marketing and career skills. That is where we come in. |
| What exactly does a Speed Secrets Racing Coach do? |
| Speed Secrets is in the business of accelerating the potential of every driver that we work with. Some people in racing, even top team owners and managers, believe a driver either has the talent to make it in racing or they don’t. At Speed Secrets, we know talent is only a part of the equation. We believe that auto racing is no different than any other sport – where athletes all have coaches to draw out their best performance at the time when it counts the most.
Our Speed Secrets Race Coaching team is made up of a network of race driving coaches who are recognized as some of the leading and most sought-after coaches in all of racing. As such, these individuals will work with you to identify what you need to reach both your long term goals as well as your more immediate goal of consistently performing at your peak potential. To put it differently, our racing coaches know what it is going to take to reach the top levels in racing and they can help you get there. It is going to take a significant amount of commitment, desire, a well thought out plan, and making decisions that are consistent with your plan. You might get there on your own. But we will get you there faster. So what does a Speed Secrets Racing Coach do? Whatever it takes to help you reach your goal of a career in auto racing. |
| What is unique about Speed Secrets Coaching? |

| Describe the Speed Secrets Race Driving Coaching process? |
|
| 1. Pre-session conference call |
- Before your coaching session even begins, you and your coach evaluate the best use of your time together and determine a set of objectives for your session.
|
| 2. The race coaching plan |
- Based on your pre-session conference call, your racing coach sends you a coaching plan. This plan outlines the strategies and tactics that you will use to achieve your objectives as a racing driver. When available, your coaching plan includes a track map and detailed track guide for the track where you will be racing.
|
| 3. The Coaching Session |
- Your on-track session is based on the racing coaching plan. You and your Speed Secrets Racing Coach use the full day to achieve your objectives. Your coach also adapts to the conditions of the day and introduces new elements based on your progress.
|
| 4. Post Session Report |
- Within 48 hours of your coaching session, your racing coach sends you a post-session report evaluating your progress. It also provides additional ideas and strategies to consider in the development of your racing skills.
