    I'm looking for a course for my SO. Not quite a track day thing, but I guess it could be at a road course. I track the 458 a couple times a year, I'm also a semi pro licensed NHRA ( Top dragster) and I do some oval track. Unfortunately I'm not a good teacher when it comes to her. I want to find a course where she can learn to drive and use all of the car if something requires it. Almost like the old DOD escape and evade course. We are on the East coast. We have places in VA and Florida, but are able to travel. Any ideas? Thank you!

    If you want a TVOC course, Summit Point's Training Facility is not too far from you in Arlington and will give a range of courses

    If you're looking to have her do more "performance driving" I know our local PCA does a women's HPDC (high performance driver's clinic) every year

    I think HPDE with instructor would be very relevant and helpful. Learning control, technique and proper line all translates to the street.
    I’m a certified MSF level 2 instructor and track 20+ weekends a year in the SE. Feel free to PM me maybe we can figure out a weekend to pair up.
