About this event
Imagine having a full-time professional driver coach working with you consistently throughout the season. Do you think it would make a difference, and that you’d improve your racing performance? You bet it would! Well, we can’t promise you that but we can offer a start in the right direction with a day of race driving instruction from the inimitable Ross Bentley.
Beyond his own racing successes, Ross Bentley has been coaching drivers of all levels and types, all over the world. And on March 10 he’s coming home to share his secrets with you. In this one-day online and in-person seminar presented by the CACC Ed Smart Legacy Fund Committee, Ross will help you to:
- understand cornering at a deeper level than you’ve ever had before,
- provide you with practical, specific practice drills and strategies to improve your racecraft,
- provide self-coaching techniques so you see continued improvement in your racing skills, and
- understand new regulations requiring in-car video cameras and their impact.
Previous attendees to a Ross Bentley seminar understand their value and can rest easy in the knowledge that you will race better than ever after putting into play what Ross shares with you. Ross Bentley is the author of the popular Motorbooks Speed Secrets series. He is a racing coach, race car driver, author, podcaster and speaker. Bentley raced in the CART Indy Car series in the 1990s before moving on to endurance racing, where he won the 1998 GT3 United States Road Racing Championship and the 2003 SRPII Class Rolex 24 Hours of Daytona.
