I'm more referring to understanding the likely outcomes of pushing the envelope w/ carrying speed/ throttle, etc, and how you deal with those possiblilites should they occur.

For example, If I carry more throttle through this corner... there is a good likelihood the car will either understeer or oversteer, I have the confidence in my ability to manage either situation should it arise.
Got it, no worries being able to catch the car no matter which effect might occur and believing in that ability. Exactly what I'm lacking due to too little experience atm. I feel most comfortable slightly below or at the limit of tire grip. Making progress on being mentally ready for countersteering before an oversteer kicks in, but it's a long way to be "ready for whatever may happen".
I like your strategy of going the instructor path, good move from all aspects.
So far I've gone with sponsoring on the car and promoting it as a first step to reduce some costs. Giving back knowledge once it's there is a win win. Thanks for sharing, and impressive track resume!
