Proper Brake Release Points

Karting

Instructions

Select any car & track for this exercise. Based on the corner type you are entering pick the correct end of brake zone reference point (work with your coach to identify this sport if need be) and focus exclusively on getting off the last bit of brake pressure at this point and not getting back to throttle too early. As you go, challenge yourself to rolling as much entry speed as possible without compromising where your brake release point comes.

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.
