As a new driver im realy enjoying your content. Going into great depth and detail about driving tips and concepts in a responsible way.

[ElderlyAnteater]

Always happy to see you encouraging people to enjoy cars without feeding into some of the toxic and irresponsible culture that can come with that. massive props to you as always

I might add as number 8: do not enter a bend too fast if you don't have the appropriate skills. For a beginner is much better to enter a little slower and keep the car balanced, so you're able to add some throttle sooner at the exit.

as someone who recently just experienced my car’s limits, im glad to have found your channel. Sadly the car is totalled, but your videos will definitely help my future driving

Just a pov of ex GT3 racer - a track day is not ideal for learning the perspective of driving 'spiritedly' on a uk road. Take an advanced driving course they will give you experience on the skid plates as well as well as cornering. There is no runoff on a main road and you have oncoming traffic which in the event of them being 'spirited' may lead to crossing central lines and thereby doubling impact speeds.50mph x 50mph totals out as a 100mph dead stop (spinal injury/death) The speeds you use are entirely your own choice, so ensure you make wise decisions to keep your speed both legal and appropriate for the conditions. Time and space are two commodities you can never have enough of when driving.

My God I just recently purchased a Subaru outback limited 256hp, I've never driven manual, I've been watching a lot of your videos and actually subscribed. Using the auto manual mode while driving, I'm having a lot more fun, and it makes rides that much more smoother. I just got back from a drive actually and watched you're videos about drive trains, it made me that much more confident taking corners especially with AWD it was a great time! You're videos honestly have made me probably 1000x more confident then I was before!!

Absolutely love your content, have been watching through it all like a tv series recently😂cheers mate

I don’t understand how you don’t have 10x the subscribers. Your channel is great! Absolutely class man, the way you explain everything is too.

[StreetwiseDriver]

Was thinking about doing these videos at some point myself but now I don't need to, i'll just point them to your channel.

[stephenjd]

ive been getting into driving and the tip about the lines was amazing.

[LimeLiquide]

I'm 14, but I still watch these videos. I really want to drive a car, my dream car is Fiat Panda 4x4 from 1998. I really like more "box" design of a car.
My dad said he will let me try to drive with his car on a road with no traffic next month :) I'm waiting for that day.
Thanks for these videos, I have learned a lot from your advice :)

[kamistake]

entertaining and educational as always Mick 👍🏾

[zer]

Man you are so underrated, i love your videos

[samuelgomez]

Very good video as always, mate!
It's a good summary of what a fine driver actually looks like.
Only thing I could do different from yours is in the point 1, so I would written "exceed your limits" instead of car's limits cause I believe the most of drivers problem isn't about the car itself and more likely about themselves in their bad inputs... The thing is the limits of your car isn't relevant at all if you can't drive. It's only my opinion about that. For sure it's a good point by the way.
And yes, in a public roads the mist important thing should be respect for you and the others. Real petrolheads is not about crazy driving but safety one!

Cheers mate!

i come to this video after writing my car off. I agree with all these tips and I follow all the tips. Although I would definitely tell people to never drive as fast as you can on a road you don’t know. I followed tip number 5 on a corner thats entry was really smooth and looked like a nice easy corner. Little did I know on the road I’d never driven on, its one of those corners that last forever and got way tighter than initially anticipated. My back end flicked out and rest was history straight into a ditch. I’ve learned my lesson to never wrag my car to its limit on a road I don’t know.

Good points all of them. I'm curious as an American if the UK has autocross like we have here? It is a course in a parking lot (Car park) marked out by traffic cones driven as fast as possible for time like a mini road course but no specific techniques or sliding needed like gymkhana or drifting. This is how I started in 1995 as it is cheaper ($35) safer and lower speeds than a trackday and is easier on the car's brakes and tires. In 1997 I started doing trackdays too then in 2000 primarily just do trackdays as I enjoy the seat time and speeds for the money difference.

[VikingPontus]

my winter tires are summer tires at this point so I'm pretty used to over and under steer so in just a week I went from going 90 kmh around a icy bend to around 120 kmh.

would love to see you drive a manual in a video one day mate

[its_miruka]

Please do a video on how to stay centered in a lane, judge the width and distance of your car using the wiper tricks and side mirrors

[fuffoon]

I would like to have a tutored track day. I don't know where. Francorchamps is around the corner.
