Im wantin to learn how to drive my car to the full potential and actually kno what im doin and not fuck up and kill my self on the real street?

 

there are the evolution schools which are about 200+ but you get a lot of seat time. then there are the novice school which teach you a lot about how to race. my suggestion is to go to a auto-x and learn what you can and then use what you learn on the street.

 

Stevie Wonder's Driving School. LOL.

 

I bet they all drive crx's there.



PM reuter about Skip Barber. He said it was really good.

 

is skip barber in the area?? i kno there is one down in FL but that's kinda far lol

 

No, it's not in the area, but that's one I'd recommend.

 

Local clubs put on autocross schools. These are what you should attend. Go to some of these, and run a few autocrosses and that will accomplish what you say you want.

 

Then if you are ready to take it to the next level, you can try Driving Events or DEs which are held at race tracks. There are two tracks that are relatively close VIR in wester VA (about 2-3 hrs away) and Sumit Point in West Virginia (about 60+ miles outside Washington DC, 3-4 hrs away).

Both tracks routinely have DEs sponsored by different clubs and racing organizations. The best one I would reccomend for you would be Friday At The Track (FATT) which is conducted by BSR at Summit Point. That was my first driving event when I too wanted "to see what my car could do." The nice thing about FATT is that it is only one day, Friday, and it is not too expensive (about $150 when I last did it).

After the stuff I learned at FATT, I never looked at on/off ramps the same again !!

 

Oops, didn't realize you were in No Va. Summit Point is even closer to you then. I would definatey recomend FATT then.
