Any Interest In A Skidpad Day?

[agreatham]

Count me in, I'll "work from home" on a Friday if I have to.

By the way, the Drivers' School has an excellent curriculum for skidpads here. Is there any chance the session(s) be recorded as part of our Drivers' School car control progress?

And in case anyone is interested, here's a video of how my 12 minutes on the active systems loop at Summit Point went last year:



Excellent instruction from Jeff Mohan as you can see.

I'm still working on this guys. As soon as I know more information, I'll report back.

Thanks!

Wow, great post Mike! That should be required reading / viewing before any skidpad event for novices.

Good video Mike. If you guys need instructors, count me in. Sounds like it'd be fun!

I'm ready. I'm ready. I'm ready.

So any news?

So any news?

I haven't given up hope yet - but, with time, this looks to be less and less a reality ...

We have enough interest to do it, but my contacts at SPR are not being responsive to this idea.

If you want to make this happen, contact Gordon Kimpel. He is the BMW CCA NCC contact for BSR and has coordinated skidpad days in the past.

Definitely interested. Question: if there will be more than one area available, can a mini-course be constructed ... e.g. mini straight to a Rt 90 ... left 90 ...left 90 ... right 90...and out (4 cones)??? ...or even simpler single-situations stations (vs. circles/figure-8s). thanks, Donne

Would we be required to go with an instructor, or can we go on the pad alone?

Guys, this simply cannot happen until the offseason. The prices being asked for facilities is making this cost prohibitive.
