MEET RAY PHILLIPS

My name is Ray Phillips and I have been involved with racing since 1994 and I raced open wheel cars for 17 years. I have also been an instructor/driver coach for over 20 years. Since I’m very analytical, I started using data to improve my driving as soon as it started to become obvious that the use of data can be a competitive advantage. I have been going down the data rabbit hole for many years now and when I realized that I have much to offer in regards to using data analysis and driver coaching, I started Precision Driving Analytics (PDA) in 2015.

I have been going down the data rabbit hole for many years now and when I realized that I have much to offer in regards to using data analysis and driver coaching, I started Precision Driving Analytics (PDA) in 2015.

I’m now proud to say that I am the Data Engineer/Driver Coach for a 2019 Championship winning Ferrari Challenge team. We also finished 2nd in our Championships in both 2020 and 2021. I support multiple drivers for this team but I have also helped many other drivers find seconds off of their best times at many different tracks. In one week, I supported six different drivers at two different events and between them they found 16.3 seconds. Recently I had a client improve previous lap times by over 4 seconds in one qualifying session simply by analyzing the data and determining that a setup change was in order. I always use data and/or video to help the driver perfect their driving techniques and to help the engineers give the driver the best setup for them. But one thing that I have learned as a Driver Coach is that sometimes the psychology behind being a good race car driver plays just as much of a role.

Whenever I use data, I always go much further than my clients expect and I show them how to get more out of their data than they thought was possible. They are always surprised about how quickly and efficiently the data can be utilized. There are so many different ways to look at data other than squiggly lines and this helps my clients understand the data better.

I can help real world racers, SIM racers, and HPDE drivers go faster while staying within their limits so please check out the products and services that I have to offer. I look forward to hearing from you!
