The Advanced Driving Skills school is designed to help you improve
your driving skills and to learn about car dynamics. The school's dual
purpose is to prepare students for our
High Performance Driving school
and to teach skills useful in everyday driving situations. The school is held in a large
parking lot, using plastic pylons, to provide a safe learning environment for these low
to moderate speed maneuvers.
The day begins with a "chalk talk", where our expert instructors
explain about vehicle dynamics, the techniques students will be taught, and
summarize the exercises for the day. Prior to the school, students should
read the curriculum,
for an in-depth understanding of what the school will cover.
Students will spend time on our skid pad and figure eight course, learning
about understeer, oversteer, steering with the throttle, secondary effects,
"the line", and power-slides. These basic building blocks are key
to learning how to bring you car under control, when the unexpected happens.
Our braking exercises allow students to learn braking with ABS, threshold
braking, braking and turning, and one and two lane emergency lane changes.
These life saving accident avoidance maneuvers prepare students for numerous
real-world situations.
At the end of the day, the students get to put together all the skills that
they have learned, through numerous fun filled runs through our Autocross course.
Students demonstrate braking while turning, inducing rotation, countering
oversteer, and other techniques by navigating through this challenging course.
