Default Driving School Help Needed. October 28.

I am looking for an one day driving school (car need to be provided) for October 28th. Would prefer road course. We are willing to fly anywhere in the US, but middle of the US is better than Miami for example.

Any ideas?

Boston BMW CCA is doing a 3 day school at NHIS Oct 27-29.

We (the North Atlantic Audi Chapter) are doing a 2 day school right before (Oct 25-26). You could have 5 track days if you want :-)

What about a Bonderaunt or Derek Daily School in Las Vegas or Phoenix?

Default He said: " Car need to be provided"

Additionally, it sounds to me like he is looking to attend an accredited drivers school, not a drivers event.

Tomasz. Having worked for Barber, I am biased, but I'd look to the schools in this order:

1) Skip Barber
2) Jim Russell
3) Derek Daly
4) Bob Bondurant

Also, pricing is often, ahem, flexible with these schools, if they are not busy. See what you can work out.

Cheers,

Mike S

Default I have two buddies, October 27, 28 and 29th are the dates.

We want to do a two day event. Racing or high performance driving school. Skip does not seem to have anything available on these days.

I can probably get you a spec miata rental for the BMW dates, though not having an instructor seat could be a problem.
