The racing ladder starts with a group of young lions champing at the bit, and all going for the same brass ring – F1. Only a few will make it. So what does it take?
In our latest video a group of top international drivers, at various steps on the ladder, talk about what it takes to reach the top, as well as discussing some alternate routes to a successful racing career.
Take a look.

How to heel and toe like Senna

by Driver61

Driver 61's professional racer, Scott Mansell, explains what the heel and toe technique is all about and how to rev match in your road, track day or race car. For the full article and cheat sheet go to: http://bit.ly/D61HeelAndToe

Here's what we're going to cover: - What the heel and toe technique actually is - Why we would want to downshift this way - A step by step guide about how to heel and toe, including the order of your inputs and how to position your feet - The best way to practice heel and toe, so you’re well prepared before you try it on the circuit Heel and toeing is a technique whereby you match your car’s engine speed or revs to your car’s wheel speed to create a smooth downshift.

If you don’t match the engine’s rev to the wheel speed you risk locking up the driven axle and destabilising the car. You do this by using your right foot across both the brake and accelerator pedals; toe on the brake and heel (or the side of your foot) on the accelerator pedal.

As Scott Suggested, the way i learned was to simply rev match on downshifts first without braking. Once you get comfortable doing that, then add the brake pedal. The hardest part for me when learning heel/toe was applying constant pressure on the brake pedal when blipping the throttle. I used to apply too much pressure on the brake pedal as i was pivoting my foot which caused the car to lurch.

Turning a single fast lap is one thing but the ability to keep putting in hot laps, one after another, is something else.
Consistency. It's one of the toughest things for a young driver to master, and it's also one of the keys to winning.
In our latest video, an elite group of IndyCar and Le Mans winners explain just what it takes to get your lap times in order. Take a look.
