+Ryan Squires Double clutching? Are you driving a massive old 16-wheeler with no synchro? If you are, then you'll already know double clutching. If not, then stop taking racing advice from Fast And Furious. Double clutching is certainly not a racing technique. Heel-toe on the other hand, learn that shit!
Y'know what take guts? Apologizing. Especially when you don't have to. When no one asked you to, when no one called you out on a mistake or intentional wrongdoing. Randy Pobst. Thank you for leading the way! Please continue to inspire the next generation with honorable action and word. Good Job!
This was brilliant and subtle. What Randy is really saying is: the situation is fluid. Nothing stays the same. Brakes, tires, engines heat and cool; tanks empty, weight/balance change. Frustration happens. If you have no advantage, create one. Love that line "fill his mirrors". Fake a pass - inside, outside, corners, straights. Make him roast HIS sh!t, till you get that mistake. Great vid.
Love this show more and more. Randy Pobst has got a great personality and sense of humor. There should be a motor-show with Randy, Chris Harris and Jonny Lieberman.
"wait till you see God, and slam then on." lmao!!! I laughed hard when he said that. keep up these awesome videos Randy! educational and funny at the same time! can't beat that!
I want more... this is great. The fact that you have a smart real race car driver who has respectable pedigree and a personality is what makes me pay attention more than anything else in these type of videos.
Love these series by Randy. As a guy who is just been tracking cars a few years these are helpful to watch and learn from. Looking forward to more in the series
I love doing motorcycle trackdays. I am fast enough to ride intermediate group but on one occasion, it was overbooked, so I rode with the beginner group. Passing on the inside wasn't allowed for the beginner groups. So I had to make all my passes on the outside. Brake late into the corner and carry more speed, wait for them to turn into the apex, add more speed and lean farther to maintain your wide line. Once you've passed, get on the gas hard so that you can barely make the widest exit line. Oh, I felt my balls drag the pavement that day.
Please keep them coming!! I absolutely love this show. Randy explains things in a way everyone can understand. I look forward to each show and hope you plan on making many more.
Randy, I was surprised and pleased that you mentioned the late Paul Hacker. We ice raced Corvairs against one another when we both started out. We also had an impromptu race leaving a Mo-Hud meeting one evening. It was probably the only time I ever beat him! Entrance ramps for the win! When we parted ways on the interstate, I slowed down and was promptly pulled over by an Albany cop. I explained that we were both race drivers and surprisingly, he didn't write me a speeding or reckless driving ticket but did admonish me not to race on the road. (Good advice kids - don't do it! Take it to the track) Paul went the tin top route and I went to formula cars. I should have gone Paul's route. I didn't have the financial resources to be really competitive in FC and FF. In any event, Paul was probably the better driver and he was surely braver than I. Paul and Karl subsequently ran a little go kart oval which Mo-Hud would take over once a year for fun racing. It's been closed for a few years now. Ah the good old days. BTW - nice series and a fun presentation - thanks for this and for your SCCA work. - Dave ·
In addition to drafting, blocking and 'bump-and-run' techniques are used and legal in NASCAR! One of the unique aspects of NASCAR as opposed to other forms of motorsports.
It was about time Randy got his how section on here. I think he is awesome. One day at a track with him even if I'm only allowed to ride a bicycle would be awesome.
This video is totally awesome. Forgot one way to pass... off road with 4x4. I'm a Z71 kind of girl who can drive over cars. Randy is cute, and has really become much more comfortable and funny on camera.
Even with a small power to weight ratio advantage, you will likely need that draft, and also good braking, to secure the pass. Probably not best to think of these methods as independent, more often than not several are gonna be in play at the same time. (Gonna have to nail that last turn so you can be close enough to draft down the straight to get the opportunity to TRY to out-brake your opponent into turn one. And it might take a few tries.) Also I would like to add one more idea to this list. Sometimes the safest way to make a pass on someone of very similar speed is to wait for a mistake to pounce on. Patience Patience - not crashing is always the best plan for a good result. More balls might win you a pass, or MAYBE a race, but never a season. Randy is a rock star.
I enjoyed this learning episode. Learn something new everyday. When I get my Lexus ISF I'm coming for you Randy Poost. I'm going to put you behind me. And that's on a serious note.
Excellent stuff! LOVE that randy has his own show, he very well deserves it! I want to learn everything there is to know about the race course, and thus I'm looking forward to moar!
If you have balls of steel, wouldn't that make your car heavier?
That's why Randy doesn't recommend more balls. He understands WEIGHT REDUCTION BRO
+kirbyswarp nice profile pic
Em@il Thanks fam ;)
They help with the center of gravity bro 😂😂
Balls made of carbon fiber.
With my omies
randy is such a humble dude. my respects to him
I like the program. Could you do one on proper shifting techniques? Heel-tow, double clutching, stuff like that?
+Ryan Squires Coming soon!

+UrbanNinja747 Lol yes, double clutching isn't a racing technique, it's a technique for truckers.
+Internet User Yeah, just secure it on your heel and tow the car behind you, duhh. The fastest way possible
+NISMO N ATTACK 東瀛戰神
And it also applies to some classic cars too.
My old landrover has no syncro ;)
All the dislikes are from people who got passed and punted off the road by Randy.
Unbearable Pain hahahaha
Makes sense
Steel is too heavy. Balls of carbon fiber!
Try carbo-tanium
I hear that!!
Titanium for lord of galaxy, me
carbon fiber balls swap
Love this guy. Good driver. Good presenter. Good personality. Bravo! Pobst rocks.
This video should be mandatory to watch for people who are playing Forza 6.
+recoilhurts too bad the thing that is mandatory in Forza 6 is "make at least one comically overpowered car".
You mean download one comically overpowered car :[
+recoilhurts Never has a more accurate comment been typed
+recoilhurts damn drivatars need to learn their place
+recoilhurts more like any racing game ever lol
Did I see a fat clone of the STIG?
+ROBOFORCERX2000 The American clone. :P
+ROBOFORCERX2000 the stig's american cousin
+ROBOFORCERX2000 Johnny.
+ROBOFORCERX2000 where???
It's called the Pig!
Thats one beautiful GT3
late braking, that's Lewis Hamilton's specialty.
That's what I do in Forza lol
+Huey Freeman I prefer No Braking. That's Pastor Maldonado's thing XD
+Huey Freeman and Alonso and Verstappens
yep and he stays winning
+TheAventadorSV alonso ftw

Everyone who plays forza needs to watch this. There's a reason I only do ghost races.
Lol, me too, so much dirty driving out there!
So dirty haha
What's good Chopper? lol
Dive bombers! 😂
Even in team racing bro. i’m like whyy where on the same team
The Racing Line is right up there with Roadkill and Dirt every day as favourite things from this channel

Randy, these videos are absolutely amazing. You were born to be on camera. If MotorTrend cancelled this series for any reason they would be mad.
*RANDY POBST* is such a BOSS.
He seems to understand the scientific side, the technical, and the fun side of racing. He's a true legend in my eyes.
Love this show more and more. Randy Pobst has got a great personality and sense of humor.
There should be a motor-show with Randy, Chris Harris and Jonny Lieberman.
Mr Pobst that made me cry. I really enjoy and admire you. ROCK ON and thank you
This SOOOOOOOOOOOOO has the Bill Nye the science guy vibe!! Which is good!! Good work MT!
"wait till you see God, and slam then on." lmao!!! I laughed hard when he said that. keep up these awesome videos Randy! educational and funny at the same time! can't beat that!
I'm so glad Randy has a show now. I've always loved seeing him as a guest.
Starting to like this series, Randy is a great host
Point #5 Balls : It takes a REAL man with big balls to come out and apologize as you did Randy,lots of respect hands down _._
I love this show! The sarcasm is great! "Let your engine make you look like a hero" and "Handling: horespower for the turns"
Brilliant!
Another video full of proof that Randy is The Man, including the end @ 7:45 which shows his humility and no-excuses approach like the Pikes Peak vid.
I want more... this is great. The fact that you have a smart real race car driver who has respectable pedigree and a personality is what makes me pay attention more than anything else in these type of videos.
Another grade-A quality video series by MT. Randy Pobst is a rockstar.
Probably one of the best series on youtube. Love Randy Pobst
Randy going deep at the end.
+askingdavid i thought he was gonna say SIKE at the end :D
POBST is the motherf*cking man.
+askingdavid So deep that Kassem G almost showed up.
I just wanted to pat him on the back and say hey it's alright.
I learned a TON from this episode. Thanks!
Arguably my favorite show on this channel so far
481K views when Pobst is spilling gold. Us driving enthusiasts are truly a rare breed.
loving the originality of this series. MOAR please.
Randy Pobst is the best part of Motor Trend's channel.
Love these series by Randy. As a guy who is just been tracking cars a few years these are helpful to watch and learn from. Looking forward to more in the series
easily the best motor trend series now. randy is godlike.
I love this series, Randy is awesome!
Keep it guys! Cheers from Ontario, Canada!
Love this video! I hope we don't have to wait this long for the next one. I like the balls out approach. Luckily I have the normal amount of 3 balls.

Sean!! Baby
mdh16hunter Don't make it weird :3
LOL
I am a big fan of this series! Please keep it up Motor Trend! I'm always ready for more Randy Pobst!
This is the best series

Randy vs the Stig; would make me literally so freaked happy
Randy you're simply the best!
It was about time Randy got his how section on here. I think he is awesome. One day at a track with him even if I'm only allowed to ride a bicycle would be awesome.
This show is so great I can't wait to see more of it. Really makes me with there were race tracks I could attend open sessions at around me.
This video is totally awesome. Forgot one way to pass... off road with 4x4. I'm a Z71 kind of girl who can drive over cars.
Randy is cute, and has really become much more comfortable and funny on camera.
I'm waiting for this show episode's more than any other show!
Randy you ROCK MAN!!!
I'm going to follow Randy's driving classes. Very well explained material, good guide lines and rational thoughts. Well done Sir!
I can't get enough of him saying "MORE BALLS!!" :D
Great video and very informative for the rookies. Of course I've mastered all these moves from years of pc racing sims lol.
Randy, you are a natural! Man, you were meant for this, buddy. Maybe racing should be secondary to your new television career
This video was the best one Motor Trend has posted so far and teaches a lot of you how to drive 💯
Nonetheless, great advice!
This is the first episode I've seen I love this show I can't wait for more
Pobst is killing it.
Wow, I like this guy more just because of this video

You're a great guy, Mr. Probst. More of these please!
