Hey everybody,

I did this before and never got a good answer if it was taboo or not. This is the first place I want to look for interest in what I have to offer, though, because I know how extensive the road racing community is here, on this forum. Please forgive me if this isn't appropriate!

I have completely revamped my driver coaching program. I now can coach in both in clients' personal cars or in a track prepped BMW M3. This is the same style car that I leaned on and serves as a chalkboard for the explanation of car physics and how setup changes work and feel. I can also offer full hospitality for track events so we can discuss driving in the comfort of an air conditioned Renegade.

Anything from driving theory to track car setup is something I can include and cater to in a day or weekend. Modestly, I have learned the above from some incredible road racers and am passionate about relaying that information to new drivers. I respected my coaches very highly and have always enjoyed the idea of being in that position.

I'm sure prices are the point that really turn this post into something that shouldn't be posted so I won't put them up here. Just know that with my resources I can offer similar prices to my colleagues but with the use of a track prepped car. You don't have to worry about wadding up your daily or wearing out pads on your personal track car.

If anyone is interested please let me know. I would love to get something started as soon as possible. The best time is the off-season which is NOW!

P.S.
Moderators, I know that this is probably bordering on a vendor promotion, please inform me on how to become one.

 

Yoo Matt, you still got that Yellow and Blue M3 to which you are referring?

 

I do have the Yellow/Blue car, but it's actually a 325i Touring Car. I now have an E46 M3 with adjustable coilovers, great brakes, etc. The perfect coaching tool!

 

FWIW I recommend Matt, he's an excellent driver and enough of a "nerd" to also be good at explaining how he does it and most importantly how you can do it better. The fact that he has a great car plus hospitality makes it all the better.

Driver Mod FTW

 

Why thank you, anonymous poster! Do I get the honor of sharing a track or two with you and your white and red BMW next season?

 

Great job getting the pole at Mid Ohio this summer. Your lap time 133.6 is right were the top NASA ST-2 Corvettes run. My Evo is down to 135's and those 2 seconds are were my job will be next year. I will be looking for help next year from the EvolutionM community. I am sure I will not be the only Evo competing at the Mid Ohio NASA championship that could use help. I can't see hiring a instructor for me till I have a data system up and running. I keep in touch with my old Skip Barber friends and understand the amount of experience needed to utilize the information.
I tried to meet you at Lime Rock but you were busy. The team set up is very impressive. The rig, cars, equipment ect. I had no idea how serious the Grand Am series has got. Are you racing again at Daytona in the Camaro? Good luck with next season
