Default Anyone DE with Performance Driving Group?

http://performancedrivinggroup.com/

By chance has anyone DE with this group? I see they have an event coming in December at Daytona. Dropped them a note asking for their rules as they are not posted. Their response was they are not like PCA and they provide their rules during the classroom. Are they similar to Chin Motorsports or PCA DE's?

These are the guys who used to run the Florida HOD group. More like Chin than PCA. Three run groups. Open passing in the 100 group (chin red group) but they prefer you don't go two abreast through corners. Had an HMS event today.

I've participated in their events back when it was HOD and yesterday as Performance Driving Group.
They are not like most other organizations, meaning they treat you like an adult. No politics and hierarchy BS.
They give the latitude to enjoy yourself UNTIL you demonstrate yourself to be a moron.
Meeting is BRIEF!
Advance drivers: You know what to do. We're watching. DONE.
Intermediate drivers: Do not do something stupid and don't run out of talent. DONE.
Beginners: Meet your instructors and go to class. DONE.

Henry Gilbert (organizer) is a good guy.

Almost as short as a David Murry drivers meeting which is open passing in straights, point bye in turns and the track is Hot at 0830 meeting over

I have run with Henry before and never had any issues.

Are you the owner of the fast, beautiful orange, Champion MS modified RS? We spoke briefly at the end of the day?

Yes sir, guilty as charged.
The car is much faster than I am.
I enjoyed harrassing those monster Vettes in a short technical course.
