Instructions

As the name suggests - we’re practicing fuel saving! More specifically, lifting and coasting into a few turns on the track. The goal here is to extend your fuel for a 10 lap run to 11 laps. Use lifting and coasting into heavy brake zones to help reduce the amount of fuel consumed, as this is the best way to maintain speed and save fuel across a lap. Try and keep lap times as fast as you can while earning the lap back.

Focus areas

Primary

Lift and coast into brake zones

Secondary

Colin Mullan

2020 GT4 America Champion

Car Racing

I’ve been racing nearly my entire life, with experience in everything from open-wheel racing, touring cars, to GT and prototypes. In 2020 I won a GT4 America Championship driving with Andretti Autosport, and have been recognized as one of the most winning drivers in GT4 racing in the US. My goal as an instructor is to teach you the “how and why” to improve as a driver. It’s easy to tell you what to do to be faster, but becoming a better driver on track takes more than that.
