Are the instructors hopping in and out throughout the day or one assigned for the day? If one please try to get my son, Spencer Weiss he could use some skills. He will be driving a grey Infiniti M35X. Either way I will try to catch you to say hello.

I am sure they are but it makes me feel better that known local guys participate in this event too. Sounds like 2-3 possible local which is great.

Last 2 events I instructed at had 5+ PCA instructors, most were BMW, which if you have seen the skid pad guys, are not too shabby!!!!!

I will be there. Students are assigned to instructors. I have requested specific students in the past, and tend to get them because I help set up cones at ADESA and oversee one of the 2 sessions at the exercises. If I don't make a request I sometimes get one of the more interesting cars. Most are FWD automatics. Instructors don't tend to get two SUVs or minivans.
