THE STARTING LINE
Learn it in the sim.
Prove it in the dirt.
Rallycross compresses a lot of driving into a small piece of ground. Grip changes. Weight moves. A good line disappears by the next run.
I am using Richard Burns Rally and other sims to build the habits, then taking the WRX out to find which lessons survive contact with a real course.
