Don't be embarrassed to improve your basic skills
When you practice, focus not on the driving itself, but on feeling the behaviour of the vehicle. This includes lateral stability, acceleration, braking distance, etc. When you learn how to feel the vehicle, you'll be able to drive anything at its verg

Find a training lot. A disused airfield is the best idea, because it has long straight stretches (the runway), corners (turn way to runway entrance) and wide open spaces (the area in front of the hangars). If you are not so lucky as to have a disused airfield nearby, you may look for these three things separately. You may use abandoned country roads and disused parking lots

Think of any hypothetical situation you may encounter, e.g high-speed under-/over steer, pursuit driving, etc. Think what you must do in that particular case, then get in the car and do it. Make a note of your weak points and work to improve them





Learn to drive backwards using only the side view mirrors. Once you get the knack of it, it's one of the most useful skills a driver can have

Practice emergency in-turn braking. Do it on an empty lot, not on the road

Handbrake turning is not only for showing off. It's the best way to correct high-speed under steer
