Book Preview: Change Your Vision

​A different way of seeing performance driving.

What if getting faster had less to do with driving harder, and more to do with seeing differently?

For decades, racing drivers have been taught where to brake, where to turn, where to apex and where to get back on the throttle.

But what happens when you change what you look at?

Change Your Vision explores the relationship between vision, perception, prediction and performance behind the wheel.

It isn't a book about driving lines. It isn't another “brake later, turn faster” driving manual. And it isn't a collection of racing secrets.

It is about what happens before those inputs happen.

Where are you looking? What are you seeing? What are you predicting? What information are you processing? And how does all of that influence what the car does next?

Drawing on decades of experience racing cars, motorcycles and Superkarts, Change Your Vision develops a practical framework for deliberately building perception behind the wheel.

At its heart are a handful of ideas that fundamentally changed the way I drive.

Long Vision.
Visual Anchors.
Mental Bandwidth.
Anticipatory Perception.
Prediction.
Load Governance.
Perceptual Authority.
Momentum.

These aren't abstract concepts. They're things you can use. And when the shit gets real, they become weapons.

In Vision in Combat, a sick Porsche 911 RSR engine, an unexpected sprint race and a three-hour endurance race at Kyalami become a real-world laboratory for the ideas developed throughout the book.

A driver swap. A dying engine. Fifty-three cars. Traffic. Overtaking. Defending. Darkness. A dirty windscreen. A disappearing lead. And one very old Yellow Bird that simply refuses to give up. The theory gets tested where theory doesn't matter anymore: on track.

Change Your Vision is about learning to see further, process more, anticipate earlier and create options before the situation forces you to react.

Because speed isn't always about doing more. Sometimes it's about seeing more.
