A Porsche driver's husband's view

My husband has the opportunity to test drive many different cars, so he often drives with the owner in the passenger seat, and the owner tells him, "good driverThey are often said to be "the best of the best.

In fact, I have had the privilege of riding in the passenger seat of several people, and I still feel that my husband's driving is smooth, with no sudden steering or sudden pedal movements, and that he drives in a way that is kind to the passenger.

And my husband routinely says this about driving sports cars.

If you drive a sports car as an extension of what you learned in driving school, you won't get any enjoyment out of it at all.I think that's why they try to have fun in thrilling situations. That is why they try to have fun in thrilling situations by driving excessively fast or steering excessively fast.
But sports cars are just named "sports."Self-taught driving won't cut it.and. Just like skiing, snowboarding, golfing, etc.Beginners get proper instruction on driving position and basics from the instructor.alone will dramatically change the driving experience.
I did the same thing.Beginners trying to play "sports" without knowing how to use the correct equipment.It's just a matter of time before they get it right. In golf, it's like trying to have fun while holding the club in a very strange way and not having a proper swing at all.
Once the basics are mastered, you can enjoy driving comfortably and more safely without going so fast.I think we will be able to drive in a way that is friendly to both the car and its passengers. And I think we will be able to drive in a way that is kind to the car and to the passengers.
I was at a Porsche driving school the other day.Ryo OgawaI was told when I was taught by theIt makes sense to run without spilling a glass of water in the car in the comic strip Initial D.I remember being told, "That was a bit of an exaggeration, but actually you should put a plastic bottle of water in a cup holder and try to drive in such a way that the water inside doesn't shake as much as possible.

And. I see...deep.

I would also like to improve my driving skills. I hope to attend Porsche's driving school again when things settle down in various ways.

    There is something called G-BOWL created by Hisao Kunimasa, who used to be active in dirt trials.
    There is also an iPhone application created by a fellow student.
    You do not have to bring a glass of water into the car.

    My phone is android and I love it on a used SIM-less iPhone.

    Hello.
    Be careful on mountain paths this season, as there are many fallen leaves.
    I also plowed into a local prefectural road near the Fuji Five Lakes area about a month ago.
    It was quite slippery with about 10 cm of fallen leaves.
    I was running with some degree of anticipation, but it was a bit scary.

    Yesterday, I drove the mountain road from Yamanakako to Kawaguchiko again, but it was completely dry.
    I was a bit nervous when I started to tailslide in a corner despite the road surface.
    After that, I immediately returned to a stable posture as if nothing had happened.

    Riding in sport mode (even though I didn't set it to +), I felt the same as usual.
    I was surprised because I happened to shift my seat position forward.
    I was in a different place, so maybe I had a different sense of what was going on there.
    In any case, when driving a Porsche, drive more safely than usual.
    Consciousness.

      I didn't realize that fallen leaves were so dangerous. I didn't realize that the fallen leaves were so dangerous...
      I realized that we need to watch the road conditions carefully and know what kind of roads are dangerous.

      Porsche's are so high performance that I can get a little overconfident in my driving.
      I was reminded once again that I must be careful.
      Thank you!
