My Coaching Method

Self-Diagnose

Learn the cues to know when you’ve made even the slightest mistake, in real-time, from the drivers seat. If you can identify your mistakes as they happen, you can fix them as you are driving.

Self-Correct

Learn the corrective action to fix any mistake. Remove trial and error from your practice. Know exactly what you need to do to go faster.

Self-Improve

Learn the practice routines to eliminate future mistakes. Program yourself to do things correctly and build pro-level driving habits, without even thinking about it.

My primary objective is to empower you with the skills of self-diagnosis, self-correction, and self-improvement, with speed being an unavoidable outcome of the process.

To achieve this, I will guide you through techniques that eliminate the guesswork in driving, providing crystal-clear insights in real-time from behind the wheel. No longer do you have to wonder if you are using all of the cars grip, or whether your apex is too early or too late. You will know exactly what to do.

My coaching philosophy is centered around mastering the fundamentals and implementing a systematic approach. A skilled driver should not rely on others for information on braking points or throttle control, but rather be equipped with the tools to discover them precisely, on their own. Instead of simply giving you the best line for a track, I will teach you the process of finding the best line, enabling you to apply it on any track, in any car, under any weather.

“In my opinion, Nikki is one of the best coaches in sim-racing right now. I've used a couple of coaches that are good, but Nikki is something different, something extra.”

Øystein Herfjord

SRW IMSA Series Champion
ASR GT3 Champion
Turn Racing Touring Car Champion

“He gave me three pointers that I was able to turn into 3 tenths of a second. I won that race, which was my first series win… going into the last race… he was able to point out a couple of areas where I could be better… I was able to finish the race in second and land the championship.”

Chris Braun

PCA Pro-Class National Champion

“In our [first] session, I had headphone and chat issues, so we couldn’t even drive together... Even without that, after his explanation about what he saw, I used that in my next training session and saw 2 seconds drop off immediately!”

PJ Lidell

“Nik uses a scientifically based coaching method, which helps me really understand the fundamentals of driving fast on the track… I’ve worked with a fair number of track instructors, typically assigned during track days, but none have taken [his] type of approach before.”
