Performance driving is done mostly by feel. You can't learn it off the internet, from a book, or in a classroom. Those are good places to learn theories and functions. But you can't learn to drive there. Use the books to set up the car close to correct. Use the classroom to learn some techniques and theories. Then use the track and a qualified instructer to learn to drive. When you do it right, it feels right.

Finally, somebody with the correct answer to the OP's question.

Forget all those opinions about correct tires, race set up. Blah, Blah, Blah. You need seat time and instruction from a qualified instructor. Not a racer an instructor. Racers know how to race, instructors know how to teach.

Yeah, no one before him said anything about instruction or prep.
