The patches on drivers suits do more.

Everybody who wants to be a race car driver goes there.
In years past you could do work for them like being a corner worker or
track assistant and get seat time or a low paying job like being a
intern maybe closer to being a serf.

Also good if you not into racing there are different types of classes
and you get good instructors like Tom who find out after the driving
career goes now where they still need to work and being a driver
instructor is pretty easy if you can do it.

Skippy did well with that school it's base of operation moved to Road
Atlanta from lime rock when skippy sold it.

It is true sad but true.I have know Bruce since his days at Stimola in
the 70's I push new drivers to him.

Nancy Stimola had it for a while after Joe died but it was given back to
Bruce last year, it is starting to decompose.

Do you know Frank Delv*?

Well you should know that that video isn't me. I was setting up a troll
(who fell for it completely!).

<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgNke4ifuWI>

Those are my two recorded sessions.

Better than my 3-day course by about 5 seconds, but still lots of work
to do.
