Re: 1st time at track

biggest tip is to relax and have fun. experiment a little with differant techniques to see what works for you on getting your best run. there is no set way of a quick run. on your first run, just soak everything in, dont worry about trying to beat the other car, just race the clock, otherwise your heart will be pumping out your chest and you get that tunnel vision. you'll settle down after a few runs.
