Telling of where automotive sports are heading? Or, more available options and competition for similar services out there?

I noticed they stopped listing Laguna Seca (CA) training program dates. I recently received an email for 40% off some programs but when I went to their website to look at dates the various schools are offered, Laguna is no longer listed. I wonder if they stopped giving classes at Laguna altogether.

I know a guy that used to drive the car trailer for them, very slow with payroll and this was over a year ago. He saw that coming and bailed.

IDK...smells more like just complete mismanagement of the business. I wonder if he was trying to handle the business end of it on his own, rather than having managers to do that portion for him?

Too bad, I took the driving school, the introduction to racing and the 3 day racing course
at Limerock. Had a lot of fun... must have been about 15 years ago.

Skip Barber the person hasn't been associated with the driving school that bears his name since 1999.
