Folks,

The registration for the Evolution Schools is open now: http://forums.utahscca.com/viewtopic.php?t=1213

Phase I is on Wednesday, May 18

Phase II is on Thursday, May 19

Drivers Challenge is also on Thursday, May 19.

Phase I is prerequisite for Phase II (duh) and the Drivers Challenge.

Phase II is recommended for the Drivers Challenge but not mandatory.

The amount of students is limited and the price is set to $220 per each event.

More information can be found here: http://forums.utahscca.com/viewtopic.php?t=1015 and here: http://forums.utahscca.com/viewtopic.php?t=1147

There is a lot of interest and I expect the spots to go fast.

Have fun, these are the best driver schools you can have in Utah IMHO. :redspot

Some of you are really fast checking on the school. :lol

Just to clarify phase I is actually limited to 12 students. That means that 6 students will drive while 6 students will work the course. With 2 national level instructors that are constantly changing cars, you could say you almost have a personal instructor the whole day. Try to beat that for $220. :buttrock

Ever since you mentioned it I've been waiting to sign up. I think I was the first one.

We just have to get more people from here to do it now before all the spots fill up.

Jebus. Why is this stuff always in Wendover... :madFor once, Wendover is probably the best site that we have in Utah (grip and space). Also, the instructors are coming for the ProSolo that weekend in Wendover (why do you think you get such a great rate with a low student-to-instructor ratio?).

I'm still mad that I'm on a business trip that week. :banghead:

Lewis, dont stay in the same room as Geoff, he snores like a badley tuned semi truck.

As does Makr ... the secret is to snore louder then everyone else so you can't hear them.

So you coming to get schooled too?

Ha, noted!

My wife is headed for Israel on the 19th so I think I will drive home to spend the night the 18th. It's too bad to because I just got a flyer from the Golden Nugget for $48 rooms Sun-Thur. That is less that it will cost me in gas. Of course my bar bill would probably be another $100.

DO it now. They just jumped Phase 1 from 12 to 15 slots due to massive interest.

3 slots open ... for a short time.

Hope my boss is ok with my using it as a "training day" (in all reality, I probably could articulate it real easy).

If one of us should ever do anything bad, you will need to catch us, so it very much is work realated.

On that note work needs to buy you suspension too so that you stand a better chance of rounding us up should a crime wave start. I could go off at any moment.

:D They need to rename it the dA school.
That's a possibility if you have another 6 dA members sign up for Wednesday. :)

We are now working on getting a second Phase I school. May be Johnny can call it a training day and invite some of his students.

Call it: 'In case the car in front of you has a dA sticker you may need this additional training.' :lol




















This only applies to an officially sanctioned autocross event on a parking lot of course.

chmdrm
04-28-2005, 12:02 PM
Are you thinking of something later in the year? You going to maybe do a second Phase II as well?

I'd liked to do both, but 2 days off work in the same week + giving time to settle into what I learned in Phase I stopped it this time.

By the way Uli, we are having a little social Saturday at meine vonne. Mit bratwurst, brot, hamburgers, und beir. You are invited kind sir. (see other thread regarding "party")

Uli

The plan is to have two phase I schools in parallel on Wednesday. But Evolution school still needs to confirm that they have the equipment and instructors available that day to facilitate this request.

So, this will be your only opportunity in 2005, in Utah to participate in an Evo school. But I'm very confident that we will have another Evo school next year.

Also, on June 11 there will be another school with local instructors. This will be another good opportunity for you to work on your skills in a training environment.

All this knowledge will keep you busy for the rest of the year applying it in a racing situation. :stickoutt Practice, practice, practice and then some more seat time. ;)

I appreciate the invitation, but my wife will be back from a weeklong business trip on Saturday and that is something to celebrate in private. :)

-NYC sucks. I lived there for a year, trust me come racing, better plan.
-Money is ease, I will go belly up and you can represent me to help out.
-All the more reason to go to schooling
