Default Thoughts on Driver Education events for the SUV crowd???

Anybody been to an event like this? Not just off road, but on track?

I don't understand the question... I've never heard of SUV track events, and I cant imagine what you would do if they are out there...

Are you talking about tactical driving courses?

At my last PCA DE event there were a few Cayennes and Macans in the green group.

CVR hosted a single run group for the 4 door Porsches at a couple of their Lime Rock events last year.

If I had a Macan, I would most definitely take it to a DE day!

Sometimes I think an SUV with a minigun would be a good way to get people to check their mirrors. . .

Although all the brass sprayed over the track would get annoying.

I disagree. I think the Macan is pretty cool. I like the GTS. I don’t think they come with tampons in the glovebox.

We used to roll with these. And yeah, the brass is a big pain in the ***
