Default Reviews of TrackDaze needed

I hope to make the NNJR Monticello DE on 2-3 October, but if I cannot, I'm considering instructing for TrackDaze on Shenandoah.

Please let me know your experiences with TrackDaze. I've heard only a couple of comments, but they were both good. I'm curious how well the events are run, what the students are like and the standard or driving and instruction among the instructors.

First class group. Very professionally run. My last event with them was with a white student who bumped himself down to Blue so that he could get instruction on an unfamiliar track. He was super and from the comments that I heard from other instructors - they all had equally good experiences.

A lot of the participants are from other PCA venues and you will find this a very well organized and staffed event.

Enjoy it

They put on a really good event. Its not overly aggressive and you get alot of track time. Eric and the guys that run it really do what they can to help out and if you have questions or issues they actually will act upon them quickly and not at the end of the day (if there is an incident for ex)

I just wish they had a few more weekend events as its been hard to get off work this year with the new job/ and new baby.

Shenandoah is a tough track to instruct at but can be very rewarding when the student finally puts the line together.

I last instructed at Shenandoah with Riesenöter in April. I really like the track (it was my first in a car, and one always has a special place for the first) and there is a lot to learn. Also I have a practice day before the VLN race on 15 Oct so it will be fun to compare the the two Karussels back-to-back, as it were.

Thanks for the encouragement!

I instruct with them and really enjoy their format. They're very well run, very laid back, and there are rarely any issues... I'll be with them "again" at Shenandoah Circuit.

Thanks for the reviews. I have just signed up to instruct at Shenandoah 2-3 October. Let's get some good students (in P-cars) to sign up now!
