Suggestions on videos for learning to drive

[gentletiger13]

Hi

I've decided to put my head out to see if anyone has recommendations on videos to watch to learn driving technique for racing. I figure this thread could be used to list the best videos since there is such a mixed bag on youtube and vimeo.

Thanks

Doesn't actually teach you directly but taught me heaps. Try to notice every small thing he does like throttle control etc.

Found some great lessons from the god of rally. (There are some rally stages in GT5 so I belive it helps a little)

There is a "Racing School" thread here with a number of videos in it. I'm posting from my phone or I'd share the link now. I'd imagine a quick search would do the trick until I'm able to add a link. Hope that helps
