wow what an a$$. I've heard great things about HOD and I'm planning to sign up for one of their events either at Laguna or T-hill. I'm a newbie myself, I just hope my instructor is not this 'Dan'...

The driver did not say he was a newbie. I thought he said it was his first time wearing a full face helmet.

This is very strange, I recognize the instructor's voice; I know him quite well, as it appears does VR. He is a good instructor, I can't imagine what was going on there. I hope it was a joke.
I was at T'Hill instructing that day and did not hear anything about this incident; I also know the woman who walks up to the car at the end. She said nothing about this to anyone AFAIK.
I'm glad there are no names associated with this because there must be more to this than there appears.

Agree with you, he was definitely a douchebag.

[QUOTE=Veloce Raptor;7281887]No, I don't know him. But he identified himself as "Dan" at the very beginning of the video, and he was being a douche.
Yup, missed that.

That is very disappointing. I just watched, and my wife (also an instructor) heard from the other room. She was disappointed as well.
I hope that it all gets sorted out between HOD and the instructor.
Couldn't really tell too much about the student, but there didn't seem to be anything that warranted the instructor's comments.
Shame.

granted I'm no expert at Thunderhill, but I have been around there a few times...with Ken no less...& I think this guy is doing an excellent job for his 1st DE day EVER....sure there are some less than perfect spots...but for a guy that has at most a grand total of 4 run sessions in his life he is doing VERY good... I do not know the instructor...but I sure don't want him riding with me NOW!!!
