I expect we'll see a few more as the guys who used to work at SBRS put things together. It was a quality program and having some of those instructors being able to put their own mark on a school will be great.

The diaspora of SBRS has been going on for some time, and it's a great thing to see good folks spreading the incredible institutional equity, experience and culture that made SBRS so good build these new ventures.

Many have become successful private coaches, people like Rob Slonaker, Mike Zimicki, Bruce MacInnes, Jim Pace, Lee Carpentier and Tom Long, to name a few.

Others have formed successful pro race teams, Gregg Borland comes to mind.

The first big coalescing of ex-SBRS talent was the Lucas School of Racing, headed by longtime stalwart Todd Snyder, assisted by Randy Buck, Gerardo Bonilla, Mikel Miller, Dean DiGiacomo, Phil Lombardi and others.

This one is just as good with a depth and breadth that is hard to find in racing instruction. Peter Stolz has really put a great crew together with Steve Debrecht, Jim Pace and Keith Watts.

Between these new startups and established schools like Bondurant, Allen Berg and Bertil Roos, there's no shortage of good options for professional schooling.
