one more experience at the track. I did not go on my assigned day, hungover I think. I went on Sunday, my first two instructors were typical one grabbed the wheel and the other did not say much at all, and 4 laps and your done. The third instructor was indeed a Skip Barber guy. This guy, I wish I remembered his name, was great. I consider myself a decent driver, and so did my instructor. I was having a little problem in the S turns. I would get it about half the time and my instructor kept telling me about the different ways to drive the s turns. After about 20 laps with the intructor I was able to take the s turns very well. He was able to understand my driving style and adapt.
I would have to agree with most, that as far as the intructing goes it was *** luck. I do not go to these VOI events with high expectations, I go to have fun. If you really want to learn how to drive on a track I would suggest a performance driving school, there are plenty of good ones including Skip Barber.
