Versatility is a good thing! We talk about \u201cdynamic traction,&#8221; sliding friction, sliding, slip angles, traction circle, weight transfer, and \u201csteering with your feet.\u201d Okay, we talk about rally, rallycross, drifting, road circuit driving, and even radio controlled cars. This is one of my favorite podcasts yet! And it just so happens to be the first anniversary for the show.<\/p>\n<p>ACP (as Andrew is sometimes known) has driven just about everything, from rally to rallycross, from off-road to road courses, from radio controlled cars to drifting and hill climbs. He\u2019s a Canadian-born race car driver, stunt driver, stunt coordinator, automotive journalist, spokesman, and TV personality. Interestingly, he has five university degrees, including a B.A. from\u00a0The University of Trinity College\u00a0(University of Toronto), an M.A. from\u00a0Trinity College, Oxford, and MBA and LL.B. (law) degrees from\u00a0McGill University, and was a competitive rower at both Oxford and McGill. Amongst other things, he\u2019s won Rally America championships, the Targa Newfoundland Rally, and medals at the X Games.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more about Andrew at:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Web: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.acpracing.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">http:\/\/www.acpracing.com<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Instagram: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/acpracing20\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@acpracing20<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Twitter: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/acpracing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@acpracing<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Facebook: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AndrewComriePicard\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.facebook.com\/AndrewComriePicard<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Zip Tire: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ziptire.net\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.ziptire.net<\/a>; 1-844-Zip-Tire<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_7624\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-7577-2\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"http:\/\/traffic.libsyn.com\/speedsecrets\/Speed_Secrets_Podcast_052_-_12-9-17.mp3?_=2\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/traffic.libsyn.com\/speedsecrets\/Speed_Secrets_Podcast_052_-_12-9-17.mp3\">http:\/\/traffic.libsyn.com\/speedsecrets\/Speed_Secrets_Podcast_052_-_12-9-17.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_links_mp3\" style=\"margin-bottom: 1px !important;\">Podcast: <a href=\"http:\/\/traffic.libsyn.com\/speedsecrets\/Speed_Secrets_Podcast_052_-_12-9-17.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_pinw\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Play in new window\" onclick=\"return powerpress_pinw('https:\/\/speedsecrets.com\/?powerpress_pinw=7577-podcast');\" rel=\"nofollow\">Play in new window<\/a> | <a href=\"http:\/\/traffic.libsyn.com\/speedsecrets\/Speed_Secrets_Podcast_052_-_12-9-17.mp3\" class=\"powerpress_link_d\" title=\"Download\" rel=\"nofollow\" download=\"Speed_Secrets_Podcast_052_-_12-9-17.mp3\">Download<\/a><\/p><p class=\"powerpress_links powerpress_subscribe_links\">Subscribe: <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/speed-secrets-podcast\/id1192075386?mt=2&amp;ls=1#episodeGuid=https%3A%2F%2Fspeedsecrets.com%2F%3Fp%3D7577\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_itunes\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe on Apple Podcasts\" rel=\"nofollow\">Apple Podcasts<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/music.amazon.com\/podcasts\/9ea86275-9f66-45ea-98d0-b1815b249b07\/speed-secrets-podcast\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_amazon\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe on Amazon Music\" rel=\"nofollow\">Amazon Music<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/speedsecrets.com\/feed\/podcast\/\" class=\"powerpress_link_subscribe powerpress_link_subscribe_rss\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Subscribe via RSS\" rel=\"nofollow\">RSS<\/a><\/p><p>Andrew Comrie-Picard joins me to talk about how to sense the traction limits of any type of car you\u2019re driving, whether on pavement or dirt.
