Spring Novice Drivers School-April 13-15th

[betegh9]

Steve! Interesting description of the novice school. What you didn't get about the slalom, is that each slalom cone should be treated as a late apex turn, always aiming to brush against the BACK side if each cone you pass. You want to complete the slalom at the fastest speed possible without using the brakes.
In the skid pad, DON'T PUKE! This is the best learning tool to understand oversteer and understeer. One has to keep increasing the speed while maintaining the course (not the Bush course),by going in circles. Once one reaches the limit of adhesion, is when the fun begins and the driver learns by imput,( steer, throttle or brake), to correct the problem.

I do recommend the school to anyone new to AX or DE. One learns the basics of handling, and builds confidence at the same time.
