Cool, thanks.
Now if March could just get here sooner.

 

Anyone ever done one of the Team Continental Driver Trainings?Curious how good they are.

 

I had a great time with Team Continental, ground school the night before was ok. The track time was fantastic 5 20+ min. sessions and you get to ride with the instructors in their race cars at the lunch break.I think i am going to do it again this year, plus they provide pizza and beer at the end of the day.

 

Hey when did you do the school, and who was your instructor?
I did it back in the fall of 2001, and my instructor was Bill Murray.
They put on a good school, I always learn something new.
I recommend it for both beginners and experienced drivers.
