Daniel,
There is a classroom on Friday (at least there was and I assume that's still the case) that is directed at first timers. You'll miss that by starting on Saturday.
Plus, missing Friday puts you learning driver education protocol and the track layout all on Saturday after everyone else has a days head start on you. You'll find yourself way behind the learning curve and will most likely spend a lot of time with your arm out the window giving point bys.
So, if you could get time off to make it a three day event you'd be better off.
That's not to say that you couldn't do it as a two day event, it would be more enjoyable to do it as a three day event.
Either way you're sure to have a good time.
Quote:Hello, all. I'm new to PCA and am looking forward to getting involved in the group's driving activities. I recently participated in my first autocross and am considering signing up for the upcoming DE event at The Glen. Because this would be my first time out, I am wondering if I would be missing any vital elements of instruction by signing up for just two of the three days (necessitated by work schedule). Is it important that I don't miss any Friday class instruction for the Green group? Any insight?
Thanks in advance. I look forward to meeting you all in the coming months.
Daniel
