John Bowe Driving School*, is holding another of their High Performance drive days at Oran Park (probably the last time ever!). On September 2nd, yes that's a Tuesday.
Now, this is the higher level course to what FPV owners get, it's about race craft, linking corners together, and basically going as fast as you/the car can. The FPV drive day, neuters the course to limit top speeds, this day is only limited by your aspirations/skills. You'll need long clothing (wrist to ankle cotton), an approved helmet (an Aust standards approved motorcycle helmet will do), and a mechanically sound car. I've done this course before (once or twice or thrice), it's a great day, the instructors (no more than 4:1 ratio) are all experienced racers, give useful tips, and provide timing at the beginning/end of the day to judge your improvement. Note this can be HARD on your car (especially tyres/brakes), how hard depends on how hard you want to drive. Who's in? - ChrisV (last hurrah at Oran Park) * These are the same guys that do the freebie FPV driving course. But is open to anyone with a license/any car. http://www.johnbowedriving.com/
