Well, good to see Tonya has you figured out, old man... Interesting
topic. If you are talking about driving skills for street application,
the unfortunate part here is that the other 99% of us really don't know
how to drive well. So learning how to dodge them would be good but they
are the ones that will get you killed. If you are talking about
motorsports driving skills well, yeah. But not many of us will ever
venture onto a road course and I bet no diving school around can tell
you about salt, lol... I woul dbe interested in hearing what you come up
with in the nature of driving schools for codgers like us.
