To lean about taking lines and whatnot, go to a trackday or race and watch. You will see how people hit apex's and stuff. Or you could pick up the skip barber book (cant remember what it's called).

One of my buddy's took the one day driving school for skip barber and i was lucky enough to sit in on all the classroom time and watch all the driving. I learned quite a bit about decreasing/increasing radius corners and fun stuff like that. I even got a ride in the Viper around the autocross course by one of the instructors!!!

The book is called "Going Faster" it's really good i own it, i read it... it improves your situational awareness and knowledge with good explanations and excellent points of views...
