Remember, however, that, as with any vehicle, you should take time to familiarize yourself with your PORSCHE and its performance characteristics.  \nOur objective is to instruct you in the basic techniques of car control. This manual along with proper instruction should answer why certain things occur under certain conditions and give you an understanding of the proper procedures to use in order to maintain control of your vehicle.  \nYou are about to learn a great deal about car control and yourself.  \nMOST OF ALL, HAVE FUN, AND GOOD LUCK!  \nSEATING POSITION:  \nBE COMFORTABLE! Your seat position should be such that you can reach all the controls (i.e. steering wheel, gear shift lever, all pedals) . The back of the car seat, as well as the under leg portion, should make as much contact with you as possible. Next, grab the top of the steering wheel with both hands – do this without stretching. Sit as deeply into the seat as possible in order to maximize your lateral support so that you don’t slide about in your seat. With your left foot pressing the clutch to the floor slide the seat forward and lock in place so that the knee is still bent. Adjust seat back so that your elbow has a 90º bend.  \nSAFETY HARNESS:  \nAll time trial cars use a 5 or 6 point belt system designed to securely hold you in your seat. The lap belt gives you your lateral support. The anti-submarine belt (or crotch strap) prevents you from sliding out from under you lap belt into the underdash area, and the shoulder harness restrains you from striking the steering wheel or windshield in case of impact. These belts must be worn properly. They should not be so loose as to fall off your shoulders or be incapable of holding you in the seat and should not be so tight that they are uncomfortable or cut off blood circulation.  \nAs your track speed increases, you will experience some lateral G forces that will try to push you sideways from your seat. If you are wearing your safety harness correctly, you will stay in your seat and not have to brace yourself with your arms, hands, feet, etc. Always be certain that the buckles of your shoulder harness are in the upper chest region and the lap belt buckle is in the pelvic area to avoid injury in the event of impact.  \nSTEERING WHEEL/HAND POSITION:  \nThe spokes of your steering wheel should be centered so that when it is pointed straight ahead, the car is doing the same. This will give you the proper reference upon straightening out your car.  \nPlace your hands on the steering wheel at the 9 o’clock and 3 o’clock positions. Your arms should be bent at a 90° angle. Now, with either hand, grip the top of the steering wheel. You should be able to do so without stretching .  \nKeep a relaxed grip on the wheel. When you come upon a turning situation that requires a change of hand position, keep your hands on the outside of the rim.  \nWhen turning, take your inside hand (i.e. if turning right, use your right hand) and bring it over toward your outside hand, but not past the 12 o’clock position. Start the turn by pulling the wheel with your inside hand while letting it slip through your outside hand. With your hands almost straight across from one another,","cbCailokN8FKKRxH","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailokN8FKKRxH","pdf",595372,26,"English","# Welcome\n# Seating Position & Safety Harness\n# Steering Wheel / Hand Position\n# Shifting\n# The Four Contact Patches\n# Heel & Toe Technique\n# Cornering\n# Understeer & Oversteer\n# Cause and Correction\n# Passing Procedures if You Go Off Course\n# Out on the Course\n# Glossary\n# Flags and Their Meaning\n# Notes","[{\"question\":\"How should the seat position be set for effective car control?\",\"answer\":\"Sit as deeply into the seat as possible for maximum lateral support, adjust the seat back so your elbow has about a 90° bend, and ensure you can reach all controls without stretching.\"},{\"question\":\"Why is proper safety harness fit critical on a track?\",\"answer\":\"Time trial belt systems (lap, anti-submarine/crotch, and shoulder harness) help restrain you and prevent sliding, while correct buckle placement in the upper chest and pelvic areas helps reduce injury risk during impact.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the four contact patches and how do they affect driving?\",\"answer\":\"Contact patches are the parts of the tires in contact with the road.
