Default Shameless Plug for Veloce Raptor

Hi Guys,

This is Tom and I am NNJR-PCA's track Chair and I want to give a hats off to Veloce Raptor (Dave Scott). This past Sunday we just had Dave as the guest speaker at our annual Instructor and Advanced Driver seminars (one in the AM and one in the PM) and he did a excellent job. He spoke to us as a coach versus a hot shoe and everyone had a take away. Down to earth, candid and real guidance for us "professional amateurs".

We have been lucky to have many different presenters over the years and Dave has certainly made an impression with both our Instructors and Advanced Drivers.

Thanks pal and see you around.

Tom

Dave IS the man. Very knowledgeable. He's a wonderful, patient coach who is able to put a positive spin on even my most embarrassing screw-ups.
Best money you can spend at the track.

I've been hesitant to use him as I fear his wonderful patience would wear really thin about a half lap in.

Most folks need six or seven beers before they'll ride right seat with me.

I always go to Monsieur Poulet

Dave helped me a lot at WGI. I went from 2:22 to 2:17. There is still a tiny bit to get, but not that much more. If only I could have a car in proper working condition, that would help a lot!
