Anybody out there been for a driver course on the S2000? I picked up a Honda MAC broucher from my local Honda Dealer and saw a picture of an S2000 with Palmersport stickers on it. I would like to attend a course (preferbly not in my own S2000) to learn and test the limits of the S2000. Stuff like power sliding etc... Most of my extreme driving has been done on Gran Turismo on the PS2 so I feel that I really lack competitive driving experience.

I feel that I can get that much more out of my car if I know what its capable of doing. Plus I could use a few pointers on how to drive faster/safer. i.e. shifting patterns/technique etc....

Anybody?

Ah! They have been running the motorcycle courses for some years now and the guys that I know, who have been on them, all highly recommend them.

Isabelle,

I hear very good reports of Don Palmer, who runs courses at Bruntingthorpe..but you would need to use your own car for the session.

I don't know of any other organisation that has S2000's available for "customers" use..but if i found one I would be intersted myself

Sorry I can't be more help

Regards

John
