If I am the trailing driver, I try to keep my eyes and concentration on the gap around the kart ahead. The further ahead I apply my focus, the more successful of a driver I?ve noticed I have become. I try to think of it like a game of pool or golf; where you always need to look ahead to your next shot by trying to leave a good lie.
In karting, I need to think ahead to what gaps might be available. I focus on the gaps and take control with my driving skills. In short , to achieve this depth perception and keen awareness, these are the steps that must be followed:
? Have the right posture. I sit upright with my head firm and high so I am always looking ahead.
? Look around the corner further than usual. I Look at where I want my kart to go. I do not focus on the kart ahead of me.
