On this episode of Dominating with Dawson, we go over one of the most important topics related to racing, your confidence in the car that you are driving.\xa0 There are a variety of ways to build confidence and as your confidence builds, your comfort will increase, and the focus can be applied to the driving of the car and the driving of your competitors and the race craft of passing and setting up passes of the other cars on track.\xa0 This includes both car set up as well as familiarity of the car and track.

You can subscribe to our podcast on the podcast provider of your choice, including the Apple podcast app, Google music, Amazon, and YouTube etc.\xa0

Also, if you could give our podcast a (5-star?) rating or even better, a podcast review, we would greatly appreciate it and it would help us to grow the passion and sport of high performance driving.

For instance, leaving an Apple Podcast rating is very easy.\xa0 If you go to your podcast library, under shows and click on the podcast you can leave a (5?) star rating and enter your review.\xa0
