I remember starting there were loads of really helpful people around that did loads for me and my Dad when it comes to set-ups and driving, i think it's a very Natural progression in this sport, and only practise makes perfect.

I think my problem with it is that there's only really SO much you can teach someone as you're only really able to talk about it - doing it is another thing altogether, especially on the driving side of things i don't think there's that much you can teach someone in all honesty.......... i agree you can advise someone to drive smoother, or take better lines here and there but if they've not got enough control of the car already they won't be able to follow instruction you know?
Yeh, take that for granted as one of the responsibilities for sponsored drivers

I meant a more 1:1 /1:2 'class' , every other sport does it - football, shooting, horse-riding you name it..
