There is also the Tire Rack Street Survival School. They are hosted by a variety of clubs (BMWCCA, PCA, SCCA, etc). There's one coming up next month at Atlanta Motor Speedway. I've been meaning to get both of my kids to one.

Like this - just nicer - it was almost 40 years ago after all - lol
I also drove our new-ish Mercedes 300SD and Ford Country Squire wagon as well. I remember one time my dad's partner had me go to the bank driving his R107 Mercedes... now - THAT was nice!!!
For a current example - I am working with my 16 year old niece to let her drive the 997... with me along... both to let her know what driving a stick feels like - as well as show her a bit of confidence on how she is doing and that I trust her....
YMMV as always.... |
That is pretty awesome. The truck.
They livery is fantastic!
I've been trying to get my 17yo daughter to try driving the Camaro, but she's still afraid of it (and me, I guess).
