NWARC Performance Drivers School - March 21, 2010 requirements on Mar 21, 2010 (321703) | MotorsportReg.com

Details.
The morning will be spent on exercises that focus on specific aspects of driving and the afternoon will be spent using your newly learned skills on the track.

• Instructors will be available to ride with you and coach you at each station.
• Please make sure that your car is in proper condition. Remember although it will be inspected, you are still responsible for your car being safe.
• Please do some homework before the event. Review these pages before coming to class.

Ground School
The school begins with a general explanation of the day's activities, safety issues, and how the in-car activities will be conducted. There will be a discussion of each in-car exercise so that you understand what the exercise is designed to teach and how best to perform it. Questions are encouraged.

Driving Exercises
Exercise segments have been designed to allow you to physically experience the vehicle dynamics theory explained in the classroom. Using orange traffic cones, exercises are laid out on the pavement for you to negotiate. An experienced instructor will ride with you to explain the exercise, offer corrections, praise accomplishment and answer questions immediately. With this real-time feedback, learning is enhanced.

The exercise segments are laid out with safety buffer zones around them to provide you a large margin of error, keeping you out of trouble. The exercise area is isolated to preclude access by non-school participants. The pavement in the exercise area is wet down to minimize tire adhesion. This allows you to experience the vehicle's responses to your inputs at much lower speeds than in the dry.
