No personal experience but I've heard good things from people I trust. Bertil Roos owner IIRC.

Paolo, at which track are you looking to be coached? Perhaps I could make some recommendations for other coaches...

He gave a seminar at a DE I was at a few years ago. I was impressed. No personal experience in-car with him.

Why not bring Larry Herman up to work with you?

Seriously....I bet you'd be wrong, and he'd be great.

Any recommendations for Road Atlanta...ideally the Thursday before the club race in March? I checked...David Murry is not available.

Thanks,

Rick

I went to Bertil Roos Race school 2 summers ago down at VIR and Dennis worked with me personally. I enjoyed the experience and learned quite a bit. I don't think you could go wrong with him. I also received coaching from David Murry this past December at the Roebling Road club race. Certainly cant go wrong with him either!!! Both have their own styles and I benefited greatly from each of them. The more coaching the better!
