On this week's episode of Speed Secret podcast, Peter Krause (fellow coach and data guru) joins me to talk all things driving fast – consistently! We get into why driving the limit is more important than the line, raising corner entry speed, and leading the throttle existing corners.

Peter's Speed Secret: Drive every corner, every lap, as quickly as you can.
