There comes a point for many sim racers where they want to take serious steps to improve their driving, but oftentimes, they aren’t sure where to start.
Maybe you’re 2-3 seconds off the pace in your league, but you don’t know why. Maybe it looks like you’re taking the same lines as the professionals but you don’t know where the time is actually going that makes them so much faster. This is where coaching can come in, particularly at Coach Dave Academy.
By having our Delta AI tool with Auto Insights analyse your driving, you can know exactly where and how you’re losing time and what you need to change to get faster. Whether you’re a complete beginner or someone who’s looking to close the gap between themselves and the professionals, Delta AI has something to offer for anyone who’s looking to improve their game.

The Why
There are many reasons why one may seek AI coaching, and whatever needs you may have will likely be suited to one style of coaching.
For instance, if you’re a beginner, you may want to seek out coaching that focuses on teaching the fundamentals for beginners, which is where our Never Lift Coaching Course is perfect for you.
If you’re already a relatively fast driver and you’re looking to find those precious extra tenths, you may want to look at AI coaching via Delta that focuses on advanced topics with telemetry analysis.
When learning any skill, it’s important to remember that plateaus in your rate of learning are common. Most drivers have several points on their journey in which they don’t know where they can improve.
It looks to them like they’re taking the right lines, getting on the brakes at the correct places, and hitting the apex, however, they’re still several seconds off the best times in the world.
This is where coaching can come in. By having a professional analyse your driving, you don’t have to feel like you’re guessing what you’re getting wrong. Instead, you get immediate feedback on everything you’re doing wrong that’s killing your lap time.
The When
Anyone at almost any point in their sim racing journey can get a ton of value out of coaching sessions. However, there are some situations where coaching can be especially valuable for accelerating your growth.
- You’re brand new to sim racing
- You’re at an intermediate level, however, you feel like you’re stuck and don’t know to improve
- You’ve taken a long hiatus from sim racing and are looking to reintroduce yourself to Sim Racing quickly
- You want to learn how to improve your racecraft and be more comfortable around other cars
These are just some of the big reasons to consider sim racing coaching. Regardless of the circumstance, there will almost always be value in coaching from professionals.
