    Hello all,

    No longer a Ferrari owner but couldn't think of a better place to ask this question. I will be attending the Bondurant Racing school in February.

    Doing both street and open wheel. Has anyone partaken before? It's been quite a bit since I have been.

    Guess I am just excited asking for recent experiences!

    Its a great program, excellent instructors and well prepped cars. Most recently, I went with a couple friends to do the advanced road racing school. Learned a lot from the instructors, particularly the lead-follow. They definitely know what they are doing. It is good you are doing this in February, it can get very hot in the summer. Have a great time!

    I saw them a few times at Le Circuit Tremblant it is a well structured and reputable organisation.
    You have also at Le Circuit the official Ferrari course with their 458 Italia (for actual Ferrari owner only I believe) and the Jim Russell formula Ford course (I believe they alternate with Ontario).
    Currently with the currency rate at 20% in favor of the US it is a worthwile option.
    I have no affiliation with this organisation and the participation might already been booked solid for the whole season already.

    It's fantastic. I did the 4 day competition school and the ride with the instructor in the Van before the class started was worth the price. LOL It's the most fun you can have with your clothes on and will make you feel a lot better about going fast in your own car and doing it safely. Bob and the staff are great and the facility is top notch.

    Have fun!

    You would get more responses in the Tracking and Driver Ed forum. Ask a mod to move this thread for you.

    I've done the 4 day and it was brilliant. Their crew have forgotten more about car control than most could hope to know.

    Have fun!

    Thank you gents. Very excited a little nervous I will admit. Awesome to get completely out of ones comfort zone and get into a new skill set with much more seasoned individuals. 3 days in a camaro/corvette I believe and one in a formula mazda! Very curious to see how the handling of a real open wheel car compares to my ariel!


    Yes sir, flying out tomorrow!


    Didn't know we had a sub forum for that. If a mod does in fact come across this if you could kindly relocate.

    The formula Mazda is a blast ... shifting the square cut gear box not using the clutch is addicting
