Samir Abid – Successful Race Engineer & Driver Coach

Hey there, my name is Samir Abid and I’m here to help you take your motorsports performance to the next level.

I’ve been in the industry for over 20 years, working as an engineer and driver coach, and I’ve got a wealth of experience to share with you.

I know that club racing can be tough, and it’s not always clear how to improve.

That’s why I’ve created this website and an online academy to provide answers to the most common questions I get asked as a race engineer.

Inside the academy, you’ll find all the resources you need to improve your performance including courses, spreadsheets, and books.

You’ll also find an extensive, growing library of free tips and advice on how to improve your racecar setup, analyse data and drive better.

I even have a video course on data analysis that I think you’ll find really helpful, it’s called The Complete Beginners Guide To Motorsports Data Analysis. I also have a NEW course on getting more grip from your tyres called Master Your Tyres.

Another resource you might be interested in is my podcast, where I share insights from pro racers and how you can apply them to your own driving.

To keep up to date with the latest, you can also sign up for my weekly email, Ahead of the Curve. This is packed with even more expert advice tailored for all skill levels and easy to read in just 5 minutes.

My goal is to help more drivers enjoy their time on the track and achieve their goals. So, have a look around the website and academy, check out the video course, podcast and newsletter and if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. I’m here to help.

Thanks for visiting, and I hope to see you on the track soon!
