I spent much of my Air Force career teaching people to fly high performance aircraft. The basic technique was to put a beginner in a simple aircraft and challenge him until he caught up with its speed. As soon as he got good in that aircraft, he'd be put in a faster aircraft and learn to do the same things in a faster environment. Then to the next aircraft. It reflected the quote above and some of the preceding comments. Practice and repetition tends to slow down the pace at which things appear to happen to us. A car that feels totally uncontrollable the first few times it is taken to the track can feel much more comfortable after a lot of practice.
