- 4pt Harness even on a stock seat helps a bunch.
Also give the guy in front more room so you still have play area if he messes up, saw you had to wait for him a few times.
When you go off the track I suggest slowing down and regaining control, saw you struggle with the wheel while your wipers went off to try and get it sideways again.
Just take your time, get back on track and straightened out, start again with the next turn, no need to get all antsy with keeping it sideways when you go off track.
Other than that it just looks like you need to keep more shallow angles, keep the rear end broken loose and make as many continuous slides as possible. Also stop trying to chase the wheel, your hands are all over the place. Let the wheel/the car do it's thing and catch the wheel when necessary.
- Don't worry I used to be the same, just keep practicing and try to relax on the steering.
I know your a beginner but I say as many continuous as possible because of the surface. There's a lot of dirt on the course so front grip is hindered a lot. The more the rear tires are gripping, the more your front is struggling to keep grip while your trying to turn and the rear wheels are pushing forward cause you to understeer/scrub.
Once you break the rear end loose your front has more grip/control cause now your not trying to fight the forward push of the rear tires as much.

That's the kind of feedback I'm looking for. Thank you very much.
My tires were 15inch at that time they were at 48psi.
As for the seat its a Sparco but the sliders are really just too big, my knee locked when the clutch was all the way in and I know that's bad/dangerous but I didn't have a choice. So that's my first priority is to find better brackets/sliders so I sit closer.
Haha and I do agree my hands were very sloppy just trying to prevent going off the track since I have never been on such a small track before.
Thanks again for your input. Just gotta keep practicing.
