Post Performance Driving School.

Hello All,

Many of you have participated in our events and I wanted to let all of you know what is
going on.

I have confirmed our first two day, weekend event in mid-September at the
Spring Mountain Motorsports Park in Pahrump, Nevada:

Saturday, September 15th and Sunday, September 16th.

We will have everything that is expected of a Road One event:
Hours and hours of virtually traffic free track time, excellent one on one instruction, a low
student count and an emphasis on safety and service.

Last week, I drove the route, toured the track, and inspected the hotel. All I can say is it
will be an amazing weekend! The track is very technical --your car will be in a constant state
of transition on this course. The only way achieve speed will be through smoothness and balance.
The two days of experience you'll gain learning Pahrump will pay dividends on any track
you drive. It was designed and built by its owner, veteran driver Rupert Bragg-Smith, as a teaching
track.

You can download an in-car video view of the course at: http://www.bombaydigital.com/pages/b...ngMountain.mov

Once again this is an all inclusive Premier event, covering both track days, two nights
hotel stay plus gourmet meals and refreshments at the track.

Your travel time to Pahrump is well worth it, too. (I left Costa Mesa at 1:30 and pulled
into the track at 5:30.) Once you leave Interstate 15 at the Baker exit ("Bun Boy"), the last 120 miles is spectacular.
Highway 127 is a smooth, entertainingly-twisty and all-but-empty 2 lane road with
scenery that proves getting there is indeed half the fun. Pahrump is a small town with a friendly attitude and low-key casinos. And it's just 45 minutes to the Vegas Strip.

But the real entertainment, as always, is on the track.

Please let me know asap if you would like to attend this inaugural Road One event at
Spring Mountain Motorsports Park.


Regards

Jordan D'Alessio

Hi,

I've written about this school in the past and I can't recommend it enough. I've been to everyone, save one, and they just keep getting better. Jordan, the founder, is a real car enthusiast and works to provide everything a driver wants from a school, IMHO that is. Plenty of track time, usually more than you can handle. Loads of excellent instructors. Porsche experts, BMW experts, etc. Great catered food. Skid pad. Spacious time on the track, usually less than a dozen cars at once, with skilled corner workers and safty crews. It really is a top-notch school. The price for the one-day events is about $650. including hotel accomos the night before and everything except gas the day of. Sounds like a lot, and is, but I've always gone home having gotten my moneys worth. The two-day event coming up is around $800. I believe. E-mail Jrdan for more data.

I'll be there, as will my best frined and a number of other good friends who wouldn't miss one of these events put on by Jordan. For the record, Jordan and I have been friends for years, however despite my rave recommendation, we have no business or economic tyes...yet. Maybe if enough of you go, I'll go free.

Anyway, I've blown as much in Las Vegas with far less to show. My driving has improved dramatically since I started going. It's a great day. Two days should be awesome! I've been with my '81 928 and my '01 996, it doesn't really matter what you bring. You'll get good instruction and loads of track time.

Hope to see some of you out there. I'm glad to answer questions, as a very pleased student.

Best,

Josh
