Hi Rolo,

You can always go to "Robin Sun and Hank Cohn Porsche Driving School"

I'm just kidding

At any rate, how about going to Porsche Driving Experience?

Rolo,

There is the Porsche driving experience you can sign up for, but IMO the best learning experience you can get is by signing up for a Road Atlanta track day and hire Hank Cohn as your private instructor.

But does Hank give you a certificate and a little metal trophy for your desk when you graduate?

(Wait, I know... He does if you pay him well enough)

BTW, Rolo, If you don't want to use your own car, I second PDE

Hell Rolo,

No need to hire Hank, just go to a PCA event when you know he'll be there and beg him to drive your car with you in it first and then you drive him around. If you plan it ahead of time, you could probably work something out with him.

If not, I am sure Robin can ride in the right seat snapping pictures of the early apexes.

Good suggestion regarding the PDE, Guys; but if you are interested in something a little more serious, I can unabashedly recommend the Panoz Three-Day Road Racing course. I have found that a pro school with a racing curriculum was a very valuable place to start. I had no bad habits to overcome and learned the underlying physics of car control from the start. PDE is good if you just want to see what a 996 with PSM will do, but the racing school offers way more bang for the buck in my opinion. Additionally, you are eligible for an SCCA Regional License upon course completion.
