Having gone to the so-called "high performance driver's ed" event two
weeks ago at Lime Rock, hosted by the New England Region of the SCCA, I
would STRONGLY recommend against ever attending this event!

We were promised 4 15-minute sessions, for a cost of $150. We received
2.5 sessions, because they started the sessions late, didn't have the
event very well organized and one person dumped coolant on the track
(that was the only unavoidable part).

Not only that, we were not informed about the passing regulations and
the speed limit (!) until two days prior to the event- passing only on
the front straight and 85mph speed limit.

Compared to other schools hosted by many other clubs- PCA, BMWCCA, SCDA,
QCUSA, etc., this is piss-poor.

I suggest anyone considering this event for next year think twice- do
you really want to go out there for a max. of 38 minutes for $150,
passing only on the front straight, 85mph limit, etc.?
