“Every time you’re behind a car you Gotta do your best not to look at it, because it’ll mess u up every time” Sooo true.

[@zuowang5481]

Elijah Hua But what if you hit it

[@jianyuhua]

Zuo Wang by what I means not to look at the front car is to not staring at it, just glancing, when you look at the road you will not ignore the car in the near front, other wise the car is too far away.

[@lvc5400]

it's called target fixation

[@Lazlo.]

should have said "don't STARE at it" not "look." you can look at the car in front of you all you want, just don't stare or else you will miss valuable milliseconds that your eyes should be fixated to the track

[@dario62589]

First thing you learn the hard way when you get into simracing.

[@DougMacRay]

Please consider changing the title of your video- it’s not giving this phenomenal video it’s due justice. This should be a mandatory video for driving instructors. The instructor’s feedback is calm and concise while under stress. Listen to his analogies. This is a tool used to improve learning retention. His criticism comes immediately upon a mistake yet the delivery is supportive- he doesn’t make it personal and he doesn’t linger on the issue. Most importantly his genuine enthusiasm transcends into motivation and better performance from his student. You can feel the student’s desire to satisfy his instructor! I wish I knew the background on the coach- His technique echos of a military or emergency responder background. Good man and a phenomenal teacher. Please, please consider a different title. This is a goldmine of information for those of us who teach. Thank you for posting, warmly, Boston

[@MichaelJohnson-]

No it's not. It's annoying and frustrating and adding extra weight. It's a fking RS, not a Formula 1 car.

[@elfmatw]

It has nothing to do with the car but getting to know how to drive the track correctly and also how to properly let others learn from your experience and knowledge. It wouldn't matter if it was a Koenigsegg or a Clio, this is gold.

[@josedelasheras4733]

I disagree. Brilliant instructor.

[@r3dd3v1lL]

I wish my driving instructor was this calm and collected.

[@WheresTheAnyKey1]

a great instructor makes these experiences so much better and makes you want to do more of them. Especially true for novices.

[@julesmo323]

You should count, how many cars you pass from home to work and then try to beat your score the next day. Makes for a more exciting trip to work. Of course you've got to avoid the penalty pit stops by the police.

[@Gr1mR34p3r85]

I always try to make my trip to work more interesting by overtaking, but I never counted during driving, only sometimes at the end of the trip. But you can play this game only in high traffic, in low traffic you can go for minimum time. Of course both are dangerous, as you overtake where you wouldn't otherwise. What's interesting, I always thought I am the only one who could thought of these games. But I probably am at least in my country. I haven't met similar person on the road, in the flesh and on the forums. Police is no problem here in Slovenia, I regularly hit 140 km/h, max up to 160, 120 is normal speed for a 200HP car. And we lose licence if we go more than 140 on 90, so I shouldn't go more than 150 speedo. But police never measures speed out of towns, so I'm safe.

[@richardhammer187]

[@Thesvyatful]

The engine sound in ford rs is from car stereo

[@kaipeels7553]

So? Its an AMAZING car

[@kirby1596]

Its actually not played through the car stereo... it's called a sound symposer and it's a corrugated tube plummed from the manifold into firewall/cars cabin. Why would someone running laps with an instructor have their speakers on to play an artificial sound? I agree with you in that it's an unnatural sound for a turbo4 that is not desirable for most.

[@enlightenedidiot9552]

[@NosManJr]

The car in front of you doesnt exist thats a real driver.

[@ebbonemint]

If Focus driver crashes his rented $20,000 car, No worries. If Ferrari driver crashes his $300,000 car, Very high possibility of large problems. You’re always willing to take bigger risks when there are no negative repercussions in error.

[@ninbri64]

Lol I did a soundtrack with an overdubbed Ferrari engine sound on a Ford Focus advert so this is funny to me :-P

[@WonderingAboutThat]

Interesting to hear his coaching!

[@graceleah3216]

He passed the Ferrari cause a focus costs one tenths of what the Ferrari costs. The Ferrari owner knows there’s an idiot with a focus with very little to loose about to pass him, so he let him.

[@Jned23]
