Got everybody going there for a minute.

Ofcourse I'd like to see all DE-ers that advance to yellow participate in our performance driving school, but it's not a requirement (yet).

Trust me, yours will be filled out long before mine. And be prepared, I will not be happy about that one bit. Oh, and you're the handsomest of all!

I'm getting CRICKETS on my garage thread. grrrrr. Looks like it's up to you! blueone did come through on caymanclub though. LOVED the idea of the sound-proofing the air compressor under the stair slope.

Hey, what's up with your blurry little avatar.

Why would advanced yellow and white drivers need or want to take a pre-green car control clinic? I don't think you'll have too many takers on that one!

Awwww.... thx, sweetie. You have already run with the white group in PCA and you're in red with Driver's Edge, so you'll be in white very soon.

Actually Steve, I found the skid pad and apex drill fairly instructive. I seem to be more comfortable practicing skid control at 15mph as opposed to doing so in turn 2 at TWS. The latter calls for much greater sphincter strength.

I did skidpad work on wet and icy parking lots all the time as a teenager. The clinic would be great for some and maybe I would enjoy it, but I don't think it should be a requirement for someone who has already made it to the advanced run groups. JMHO.
