Today I was coaching John Lamaster who is racing in the elise trophy this weekend at Brands Hatch.
A wet start to the day but it dried out. Perfect as we got to work on lines for wet and dry.
John managed to qualify in the top half of the class A field in his first race weekend at silverstone which was very good. He lost a few places during the races as we have some racecraft to work on!
John is still recovering from an injury sustained in his 2nd race meeting (also at silverstone). He was tapped in the side at copse and the sterring wheel wrenched itself out of his hand - dislocating his right thumb in the process. Ouch!
Johns car stood up better than he did with only a couple of small scratches on the front right wheel arch.
I used the video footage to demonstrate the difference in the way that John and I hold the wheel.
We spent most of the day working on vision and reading the road. This meant that Johns good pace became more and more consistant.
Good luck this weekend John!
