This is one of the best driving schools in the country.

I really wish I could go to racing school. That would be the ultimate vacation in my opinion. I make at least one track event with the Mercedes Club every year. I will definately get the GTI out there this year. I'm really looking forward to that.

I get to spend 40hrs. /week at the school... Come on out and let me drive your GTi!

Sign me up for a week long course on your dime and you can drive my GTI.....

Believe it or not, people pay me to drive their stuff. It's cool though, I understand the desire to take the class. It's the best "tuner" upgrade you can do.

My first book about "how to drive" was by Bob Bondurant. If you can't afford to go to the class, read his book. A little education by the master will allow you to enjoy you GTI more than spending $800. on an exhaust. You'll learn how a car truly moves and how you can control it.

I can't wait to go. Have any of you seen www.windingroad.com online auto mag? I won their promotion for the 3 day racing class at b. bondurant. ;D Looking to get a new GTI in the next 2 weeks. Great forum here!

I'm looking forward to getting much helpful info. from this site.

You could, but you'd get more out of the class if you knew how to drive a manual before you get here.

That's kinda like going to dental school to learn how to floss.

That was hilarious!

How else would you guys reccomend learning a manual? I really don't have any friends or relatives that drive a manual.

 

[DrJones]

Any driver training school will be able to teach you manual. The best way, though, is to buy a car with a manual trans and learn as you go.

Heh, I learned driving a '68 Ford Bronco with a 3 on the tree on my way home from picking it up (like a 40 mile drive).

Rent a cheap car with a manual transmission for the day
