    I am going for the 2days course.
    8th and 9th July at Monticello.

    Will post any video if I can.

    On 7th I have a booking for private class at Monticello also just to know what the track is like beforehand.

    In the mean time, I did what I can for practice for 2 days.

    Monticello seems technical and engaging. Narrow and requires respect and patience.

    I can not wait for the track day!

    You ll love it. I just was there a couple of weeks ago and the Pilota Team was fantastic, driving superb, and course outstanding. Was fun learning the differences between 812, 488, and Pista. All amazing cars in their own way. I watched videos of the track beforehand to learn it quicker.

    It seems very instructor dependent. Some won’t let you step over but some would. One of mine was very conservative and won’t let me try any and I find it unpleasant even though I understand the logic of not trusting any students.

    This vid was taken with ‘other’ instructor who is friendly and encouraging character. Only with him, I had fun.
