01
Battle Dynamics
Learn the fundamentals of overtaking: how track position, overlap, and line choice determine success when attacking inside or outside, plus key defending tactics.
02
Battle Dynamics Examples
Learn to analyze racing battles from both attacker and defender perspectives, mastering positioning, timing, and spatial awareness to win more overtaking duels on track.
03
Braking in Racecraft
Master braking during wheel-to-wheel racing: balance steering and brake pressure, adapt visual references when cars block your view, and use draft adjustments to avoid crashes.
04
Chaining Corners
Master multi-corner battles: Learn when inside/outside positioning wins, why corner sequences change strategy, and how to minimize time loss while fighting for position.
05
Corner Exits
Learn how early throttle application—not steering—controls your exit line, maximizes speed, and helps you win battles by using track position through inertia instead of artificial moves.
06
Fights with more than one car
Master multi-car racing by learning to alternate between single battles quickly, use optimal lines when others fight, and apply strategic positioning to pass multiple opponents safely.
07
The Squeeze
Master the art of squeezing opponents to improve your racing line, disrupt their focus, and gain strategic advantage in overtaking and defending battles on track.
08
Switchbacks
Master the switchback overtake: force defenders to overshoot, rotate early on the outside, then switch inside on exit. Learn when it works and how to defend against it.
09
The Divebomb
Learn what makes a dive bomb legal or illegal in racing, how to execute it safely with proper technique, and when aggressive overtaking is justified versus reckless.
10
Drafting, Slipstream, & Dirty-air
Learn how drafting works in racing, from slipstreaming and bump drafting to lift-and-coast fuel saving, dirty air effects, and strategic overtaking techniques to gain competitive advantage.
