Default Performance driving school

I'm taking a one day performance driving class on June 27 at the Texas World Speedway.
Driving School

Has anyone here done something similar? It's about $200 for the one day course. What are your experiences. I haven't pushed the Aston Martin to the limit yet so it would be a good opportunity to see what it can do.

There's one up here in Ohio just north of Columbus. I want to take a class there so bad I can't see straight. It should be a lot of fun. The track here is called Mid Ohio and it's sponsored by Acura.

I think my dad did his driving school there. He said it was good. I was going to go to the September one, but I didn't get the car done in time, shooting for the November one.

It's supposed to be really good.

here in ireland we have a day long course called "Ignition" and if you do the course (made up of class and road driving) your insurance comes down depending on how well you are graded.. my insurance came down by 50%... but then a year later my insurance company cancelled my policy.. cos they said my car was a high risk category cos it was turbo charged... a55holes.. so i just changed insurance companies :-P

I might have to look into that. I live in the southern Indiana area.

Hi Dude

I have joined the driving school and the fee was bit lower than what you had paid. I suggest you to concentrate on the controls while driving slowly you can gain confidence to drive. Regarding expenses almost every driving school more or less charging the same fee.
