I think this post pretty much sums it up.

It's one of the key differences between toy cars and real cars.

With a toy car, you watch it ("keep your eye on the ball"). With a real car, you ARE the "ball", so you only need to watch where you are going.

I always look where I want my car to go. If you look at that car next to you, you are going to hit it.
Try it, it works for me.

Mmm, I agree with " let me be natural".
I'll find the natural.

Just slightly in front. It helps avoid any accidents, but not always...

I look at the place the car is in, not so much at the car itself or infront of it.

This is so true...where you look is where you are going to go. Visual fixation is something 1:1 drivers have to work hard on. If you see a crash, look through it, passed it, wherever, but definitely not at it or you will become part of it. I use these same principles.

Try reading a few 1:1 racing guides/handbooks. They can teach you certain things that can apply to r/c like throttle control, braking physics, corner entry, speed perception, etc.

But I think that it's different between 1:1 and 1:10.
I know where I'm when I drive 1:1, so I can be leaded by my sight.
And I'll make a mistake if I do so when I drive 1:10 because I don't know where is my car if I stare at the aim.
