Announcing the NCR Car Control Clinic

This clinic is designed for all drivers, including ages 16 & 17, with a valid driver’s license and parental consent (sorry, no driver permits). The intent of the clinic is to help drivers become safer and more confident through knowledge and experience
 
The clinic will cover the following:
 
Lecture Topics
·         Seating position
·         Hand position
·         Vision
·         Mental preparation
·         Car dynamics & theory
·         Car maintenance check
Driving Exercises
·         Skidpad
·         Emergency Braking
·         Slalom/Swerve
 
Each student will get in-car instruction from an experienced NCR instructor.
The emphasis of this clinic is car control, not racing or competition. In that spirit, most car makes and models will be allowed to participate. No trucks, SUVs, (Cayennes excepted) or vans allowed. If you are uncertain, please email the event Chairmen beforehand, their decision will be final. The event is limited to 30 students.
 
Note: Car numbers are not required for this event.
