Hope you all like it.

 

awesome, thanks for posting.

I'll definitely NOT be doing that, since I am already way too obsessive about motorsports. I can't imagine my thoughts being dominated by it even more. my family'd likely kick me out and change the locks! haha...

 

Ah, but its so worth it

 

man....too much $$$$.

 

Just get rid of some the girls you have in your avatar. That should free up some $$$.

Realistically speaking, it is a fair amount of money up front, but it's worth every penny for those looking to get more serious about their driving. Also it was nice not having to spend $$ and time getting a car ready for a weekend track event.

 

how often do they have classes?!?!? +1 i am a person that would like to be the best as can be when drving!!! im familiar with So-cal Tracks (button willow, streets of willow, cali speed way) Laguna seca is still on my list and this SCHOOL sounds interesting and exciting. Corkscrew here i come!! hahaha just not sure if ill be able to tame a Miata since im a AWD kind of guy, probably gonna be hard to adapt too a rwd well at least for mee

 

:bowdown: I will be attending this when I get back to the states

 

I've always wanted to do it.... but I'll probably do the Kevin Schwantz motorcycle school at Road Atlanta first

 

Check out skip barber's website to find out more: www.skipbarber.com. Depending on which track you choose, they will have a schedule for you.

Also the Miata is a well balanced car so I wouldn't be worried about the rwd. Having rwd will help you understand weight transfer much easier then a AWD car. Just don't lift coming down hill after the cork screw! Someone did that on the second day and they ended up upside down, luckily unharmed.

 

That's awesome. I've always wanted to attend motorcycle school, but I need to get more experience learning the basics of riding before i do that.

 

i'd love to do this if I could free up the money

 

Thanks for nice review! I am seriously considering to attend this school @ Laguna, and just wondering if the program incorporates any kind of skid pad trainings? If so, could you elaborate on them little? Thanks in advance.

 

Skip Barber does hold a skid pad session on the first day, but their definition of a skid pad is almost like a autox course instead of a wet oval. You can sort of see the course here:

They have a instructor ride with you to give you some pointers and I thought it was really helpful. I got the car sideways a bunch of times which really helped me learn how to recover from it. I also learned alot about throttle play, weight transfer, braking, etc.

 

Ali, spec Miata? That’s for Gays lol including Evan Gay “remember the winner of spec Miata East Coast his last name is gay lol" our friend

Spec E30 all the way

I am J/K Miata’s are amazing, little gay but we all have it on the inside
