Offline | Driving School ?? Atlanta GA Would like some input.With the filling up of the school in Charlotte I am checking on a one day driving school at Road Atlanta.The cost is about $225.00 and is a full day with classroom instruction.It is a lead and follow session but I think speeds will exceed 100 MPH.A snell 95 helmet is required but the track has a limited number to rent.This will not be untill November 22 so there is plenty of time to plan.To be sure everyone gets in we will need to set a date to register and do it.There will be other makes on the track with us unless we can fill the whole field.I will talk more with Road Atlanta and let you know. |

Offline | Too late to get on board? I just picked my Mini up in Brunswick GA. It made it safe from Germany with no damage. I hate driving it slow over here. Give me back the Autobahn. I'd love to join you guys. Anyone else in the Montgomery area? Brain MCS Liquid Yellow / Black |

Offline | Go to this link and see about registering. I have only 3 confirmed MINIs. I was told that it doesn't start filling up until closer to the date but register early to ensure you don't get left out. Let us know when you have registered just to keep a count. http://www.panozracingschool.com/TrackDays.asp |
