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.

Hotelcalif, I edited your thread title to add Atlanta GA. Helps to avoid confusion on an international board.

If we get the 30 spots paid before anyone else we will have it to ourselves!!The guy there said people usually don't start registering untill about two months before the date.

Hotelcalif and I are registered for the school (two cars). One other MINI is registered but I don't know who it is. If you are registered, let me know and I will start a list of attendees here. Vroom Vroom!!

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?

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.

Count me in! I'm filling out my form right now to fax in. How many people are signed up so far?

Besides filling out the form for Panoz, do I need to notify Hotelcalif or QueenB other than here?

Thanks!
