Huge emphasis on safety and driving at your comfort level. Its more a school then a track day you just need your own car. The novice group i was in was full of first timers.
Sounds promising! How often do they run these track days? Is that the focus of the group or is it more of an enthusiast group? I'm more interested in learning to track specifically rather than say a social club.
