Are you attending track day events in your Miata and want to know how to get the most out of it on track? Do you feel that you are going 10/10th's out there and are left wondering "How can I possibly go any faster around this track?" Or, are you simply planning on starting a Spec Miata race program and want to find out how to drive a Spec Miata properly? If so, hire 5X Racing owner and the 2010 NASA Florida Spec Miata Challenge Championship winner John Adamczyk to attend your track day and coach you to a refined Spec Miata program, which is everything from what equipment you should have, how to optimize the set-up of your Spec Miata, and of course one on one driver coaching.
We specialize in the aspiring Spec Miata driver that is currently participating in track day events in their Spec Miata or similarly prepared Miata. Our coaching programs are totally customizable to meet your specific needs, we don't offer a "flat fee" or "standard" program, we will work with you to offer the things you need and eliminate the things you do not need, all of which saves you money. Here is how our coaching program works and the finer details of our program goals:
We are interested in coaching only at track day events and not race weekends, as we feel the race weekend environment is way too stressful and busy to devote the proper attention needed to really coach you properly. There are many track day events at Florida's four road courses, we can always assist you in finding one that fits your needs and help you get signed up.We believe in coaching that relies heavily on a "data vs. video" format. This method will take the data you are seeing on the screen and then put it into realistic, visual proof format so you can see exactly what it is you're doing and what you can improve on. We will also compare and contrast your video to John's best lap videos, which shows you the difference in race lines, braking points, turn-in's, apex points, power application, and track out points.We will break your video and data to a "frame by frame" slow motion analysis of every turn on the track, starting from the most important to the least important.If you have a passenger seat, we will ride along with you to get a first hand view of your habits in the car and your driving style (club rules permitting)In special cases, we will actually enter the event with you so we can do a "lead/follow" exercise. This is where we will lead you around the track to show you the line, braking points, turn-in points, apex points, and track out points, all while filming your car with a rearward facing video camera. We will then follow you with our car to monitor everything we taught you in the follow exercise, of course filming you as the "chase car" to show you visual proof of your driving habits and progress.Our coaching service also includes instruction to properly set-up the suspension of your Miata to accommodate your driving style. Our years of Spec Miata set-up experience has been the most beneficial to our success, being able to wring the last bit out of your Miata is absolutely necessary in being able to achieve the best lap times possible in your car.We will bring our custom set-up sheets and assist you with lap times, tire pressures, tire temps, and how to read these and use them to your advantage.As you can see our program consists of a lot of things to totally transform your driving or Spec Miata program as a whole.
