The Argument for Going (real) Slow

In the midst of Champ’s $500K race in a slow door car, let’s talk about that argument. The argument for going slow, real slow. How could being one of the slowest competitors be an advantage?  

Overcoming the Bad Run

We all want to have the perfect race. Be 00 every time, take 00 every time. But what happens when we have a bad run but win. Maybe we miss it on the tree or you don’t execute the finish line as planned. How do you overcome that run and get back up there for the next round?

Attitude

There is no doubt that racing can be really frustrating. There are a lot of negative triggers everywhere. It’s easy to let yourself fall into a less then positive attitude. The solution? Choosing the better attitude, optimism.
