Took the Fast Lane High Performance Driving class at Willow Springs this weekend What a BLAST. Good instruction from a great bunch of guys who really love racing. Lots of track time both solo and with a BRAVE!!!! instructor riding with you. You can drive their race preped Toyotas or your own car. Since I don't plan to buy a Toyota soon, I took the XFire. There were Corvettes, Porches, BMWs, Mustangs & several other makes there. The only one the instructors wanted to drive was the XFire. Rode with an instructor for a few amazing laps. He was very impressed with the car- I was glad I brought a change of underwear A couple of other instructors rode with me and they all just raved about how great the car handled (these are the guys that drive the race Toyotas every day). People from other classes were coming over & taking pictures & video of the car. Did I mention that I had a BLAST? Got compliments from several other class members (the one's who had to move over to let me by :twisted: ) I never found the actual limit of it's abilities (thank God) but I sure learned a lot about the car and my limits. Feel I'll be a safer driver and better able to drive within my abilities. If you have the chance, go drive it on a race course. It's worth the money and the grin will last for weeks.
