SCCA Rookie Skool Event Oct 31st
I had posted this earlier in the year, but we ended up postponing the event. This event is great for ANYONE with a driver's license that would like to see what their car can do in a safe environment, while learning key driving skills and techniques. The rookie skool is perfect for a number of different people because it is low in cost, does not require anything but a helmet, (and we have loaners) and a car without a "vehicle may tip" warning (aka jeep, truck, SUV) A number of parents sign their licensed children up for this event, and it REALLY can help you on the road, as I was unfortunately just reminded of yesterday. This is a great event, and I hope to see some of you out there. Please pass the information on to anyone else you know that may be interested, as you do not have to be a member of SCCA or have any specific type of car or anything. (Just nothing that will tip) In fact, stock cars are MORE than welcome!

In the morning classroom and on-course training you will learn:

- how to read the course to determine which cones are the most important,
- how to determine which path will be the fastest,
- how to define a braking strategy that will give you the best time,

- how to relate these skills to the "real world."
After lunch (which is provided), students will practice on a full solo course with an instructor . For all exercises and the practice session, you will have a seasoned instructor in the car to give you feedback and encouragement.
