I want to look into a performance driving school. Has anyone done one of these before, and what are the costs.

Thanks

I knew a girl once who did the skip barber (sp?) racing school before... she said it was really fun, but i'm not sure how much she got out of it.

I charge 1000 bucks and basically We get into your ride and I drive it like I stole it and you hold on for dear life and learn all you can!!

I would be interested in a racing course/school........

Go to the SRT Track Experience....cost $500 unless you have bought a new SRT since Apr 05......a used one if the original owner didnt go....you get to beat up on Chrysler owned SRTs all day..

Driving or stealing?:grin:

Did it while in the service. Wild stuff like vehicle-to-vehicle transfer with target (bad guy) neutralization during live-fire exercises. Didn't cost me a thing and it was OK to destroy property. Those were the days!

Of course, I can neither confirm nor deny under oath all knowledge of any of these alleged activities, Senator!

If you're serious about racing or just want to learn how to drive at the limit without splattering yourself, this is a great place to start.

Best,

We must have come from the same school of driving as a few friends and coworkers have told me that they now know why the "oh $hit" bars are there. It's just funny to see how many people don't know what a "50 cent ride" is nowadays. Get in, sit down, shut up and hold on!!!

Gateway International Raceway sponsors a free drag racing school. http://www.gatewayraceway.com/track/news/article.php?dir=200705&id=1033 I don't know if this is the kind of racing you are talking about.
I don't know if any one around where you live does this. I have been wanting to go to these classes but I keep putting it off.

Do this - it's $500 for non SRT owners, but Richard Petty runs a pretty tight ship

At least in WI and IL you can tag along with the Midwest BMW group track events.

They never mind having none Beemers on the track with them. Cost was only $500 for an entire day of on track time. Just need a helmet, the first day out you have to have one of the more experienced drivers in your car for the first half of the day.

what about something like the MI state patrol goes through? Something where you can drive 4 door RWD sedans in real world situations?

Something like this would be ideal. Not really too fond of learning a nascar experience. More like an autocross type, or a real world handling experience.
