MP, a high performance driver's ed (HPDE) is different from autocrossing. You don't need to know how to "start". You'd be on an actual racetrack, not an autocross course, and you'd learn some different things about managing your car at higher speeds.
How far are you from Summit Point, WV? It's near Harper's Ferry, Winchester, VA or Charles Town, WV. Perhaps you and hubby can stop by for a couple of hours to see what it involves.
And MP, there are regular bathrooms!
